JFR: Un groupe de travail de la SFR aux prises avec la sécurité sanitaire des agents de contraste en IRM
7 novembre 2011 -- PARIS - Les radiologues accueilleraient volontiers un consensus sur les risques liés à l'utilisation des agents de contraste à base de gadolinium pour la santé des patients. Or les recommandations publiées par l'Agence européenne du médicament de 2010 en font s'interroger plus d'un sur la manière d'imager les patients tout en réduisant le risque de fibrose systémique néphrogénique, ont constaté des experts lors des JFR 2011.
