Are gadolinium-based contrast media really safer than iodinated media for digital subtraction angiography in patients with azotemia?

abstract：:Background MRI with fluorine 19 (19F) probes has shown an ability to track immune cell activity with a specific, stable, and quantitative signal. In addition, the chemical shift differences of selected 19F probes make dual-probe imaging possible. To improve 19F MRI sensitivity for dual-probe imaging, optimal fluorine ...
