GADOLINIUM PERSONAL INJURY ATTORNEY

GADOLINIUM is the active ingredient in several different brands of contrast dyes injected into the bloodstream to enhance MRI and MRA images. Patients injected with gadolinium dyes may develop a disease called Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis (NSF). NSF is a disease which causes a thickening of the skin, connective tissues, muscles and internal organs throughout the body. NSF can progress to the point where a person effectively loses use of arms, legs, hands, and/or feet. Skins changes as a result of NSF are often characterized by darkened patches which progress to a "woody" texture and are often accompanied by burning, itching, and/or severe pain. NSF symptoms may begin from days-to-months after the injection of the contrast dye. NSF is a progressive disease which can be fatal. At this time, there is no known cure and no consistently effective treatment. NSF has been mostly seen in impaired kidney function individuals who have been injected with a gadolinium dye as part of a MRI or MRA procedure.

Serious Side-Effects

If you or a loved one have developed NSF after undergoing an MRI or MRA, you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries.
