To evaluate the nephrotoxic effect of radiopaque substances (ROS) by renal radionuclide scintigraphy, 47 patients were examined before and after coronary ventriculography. Iohexol, iobitridole, and ioxythalamate were used as ROS in 15, 18, and 14 patients, respectively. The parameters of renal filtration and excretory function were calculated during study. Ioxythalamate was shown to have a less pronounced nephrotoxic effect.
