Brief summary
The main purpose of this study is to compare the incidence of contrast induced nephrotoxicity following the administration of Isovue (iopamidol) or Visipaque in diabetic patients with moderate to severe chronic renal impairment undergoing clinically indicated contrast enhanced multidetector computed tomography (MDCT). Serum creatinine will be measured before and up to 48-72 hours post dose.
