The predictive value of the renal resistive index for contrast-induced nephropathy in patients with acute coronary syndrome

Abstract Background Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has been associated with contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) at a rate that varies depending on the patient’s risk factors. This study was conducted to evaluate the predictive value of the renal resistive index (RRI) for CIN in patients wit...
