To investigate in a unilaterally nephrectomized porcine model whether gadolinium contrast media (Gd-CM) are less nephrotoxic than iodine media (I-CM) in x-ray arteriography of a kidney made temporarily ischemic by arterial balloon occlusion. In a noncrossover design, 3 mL of each test solution were injected in eight pigs (mean weight 19 kg) at a rate of 20 mL/min into the right renal artery at...
