Popis: To assess the risk of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) in patients with renal impairment undergoing gadoxetic acid-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging. This retrospective study included patients who had an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) below 60 mL/min per 1.73 m2 or had undergone dialysis around the time of gadoxetic acid exposure from January 2010 to November 2019. All patients received at least one intravenous injection of gadoxetic acid at a fixed dose of 2.5 mmol. The primary endpoint was the development of NSF after exposure to gadoxetic acid based on Girardi’s clinicopathological scoring system. A total of 204 patients with renal impairment received 424 injections of gadoxetic acid, of which 131 and 54 had an eGFR of 30–59 and
