  • Title: Gadolinium deposition in nephrogenic fibrosing dermopathy.
    Author: Boyd AS, Zic JA, Abraham JL.
    Journal: J Am Acad Dermatol; 2007 Jan; 56(1):27-30. PubMed ID: 17109993.
    Abstract:
    There is growing recognition of the association between the use of gadolinium-containing radiocontrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging and the serious dermal and systemic disease nephrogenic fibrosing dermopathy/nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NFD/NSF). The pathogenesis of this entity remains unclear; however, our recent observations suggest a likely mechanism for the initial dermal manifestations of this gadolinium toxicity.
