00:00:00.920 --> 00:00:02.240
<v Speaker 1>Hey, good afternoon everybody.

2
00:00:02.359 --> 00:00:04.919
<v Speaker 2>It is June eighteenth, twenty twenty six.

3
00:00:06.080 --> 00:00:11.160
<v Speaker 1>Do you ever have an MRI or CT scan?

4
00:00:11.359 --> 00:00:15.480
<v Speaker 2>And they said they had to use contrast eye. Little

5
00:00:15.480 --> 00:00:18.079
<v Speaker 2>piece came out that says what no one tells you

6
00:00:18.120 --> 00:00:20.359
<v Speaker 2>about that contrast eye. So we're gonna look at it

7
00:00:20.399 --> 00:00:23.120
<v Speaker 2>and see if there are risk factors involved.

8
00:00:23.440 --> 00:00:24.719
<v Speaker 1>That's what we're gonna talk about today.

9
00:00:24.719 --> 00:00:27.960
<v Speaker 2>Stay tuned, hi, and welcome to Health Talk with Doctor Lynn.

<v Speaker 2>Here's our daily devotional today comes to the Book of Ephesians,

18
00:00:56.119 --> 00:00:57.000

<v Speaker 3>Stay tuned point.

34
00:02:42.840 --> 00:03:02.800
<v Speaker 2>And the number to reach me off air is seven

35
00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:06.520
<v Speaker 2>two seven nine one sixty four to two one five.

36
00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:09.960
<v Speaker 2>What no One tells you about contrast and CT and

37
00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:13.919
<v Speaker 2>MRI scans came up in the Journal of Life and Wellness.

38
00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:19.240
<v Speaker 2>Regina Chaneau felt burning the minimum. The contrast entered her veins.

39
00:03:19.879 --> 00:03:22.479
<v Speaker 2>The MRI came after a devastating car crash in the

40
00:03:22.520 --> 00:03:23.159
<v Speaker 2>way to MD.

41
00:03:23.080 --> 00:03:24.159
<v Speaker 1>Anderson Cancer Center.

42
00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:26.719
<v Speaker 2>She had her twelve year old son, who was battling

43
00:03:26.719 --> 00:03:30.039
<v Speaker 2>stage four cancer, had been driving to his treatment when

44
00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:33.960
<v Speaker 2>a drunk driver slammed into their car. Chaneau, a trauma surgeon,

45
00:03:34.560 --> 00:03:37.639
<v Speaker 2>lost movement to right arm and suffered multiple spinal injuries.

46
00:03:38.400 --> 00:03:41.439
<v Speaker 2>Over the next several years, she underwent fifteen MRIs twelve

47
00:03:41.439 --> 00:03:45.960
<v Speaker 2>with gadolinium based contrast. As her symptoms worsened, doctor had

48
00:03:46.080 --> 00:03:51.080
<v Speaker 2>ordered more tests, including CT scans with iodinated contrast. Her

49
00:03:51.080 --> 00:03:55.159
<v Speaker 2>thinking became clouded. Simple tasks such as tracking her son's

50
00:03:55.199 --> 00:03:59.319
<v Speaker 2>medications became difficult. Her skin burned, her hair fell at clumps,

51
00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:03.759
<v Speaker 2>kidneys slowed. I was told medical school that gandalinium was

52
00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:06.560
<v Speaker 2>safe like ultrasound. Should know who was trained at Texas

53
00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:11.439
<v Speaker 2>Medical School said that was a lie. Every year, millions

54
00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:14.840
<v Speaker 2>of people undergo as CT and MRI scans with contrast agents.

55
00:04:15.240 --> 00:04:18.079
<v Speaker 2>These are not simply dies, but drugs, each with its

56
00:04:18.079 --> 00:04:21.639
<v Speaker 2>own risk, clearance, timeline, and trade offs. Yet most patients

57
00:04:21.680 --> 00:04:24.720
<v Speaker 2>leave the imaging center knowing almost none of This lack

58
00:04:24.759 --> 00:04:28.480
<v Speaker 2>of information about the drugs can make people wonder whether they.

59
00:04:28.319 --> 00:04:30.879
<v Speaker 1>Need the detox. In most cases, they do not.

60
00:04:31.720 --> 00:04:36.399
<v Speaker 2>The strongest protection is asking informed questions before the scan. Afterwards,

61
00:04:36.439 --> 00:04:39.160
<v Speaker 2>the best support is usually simple, includes knowing what.

62
00:04:39.120 --> 00:04:40.720
<v Speaker 1>To watch for.

63
00:04:40.720 --> 00:04:44.360
<v Speaker 2>For most people with healthy kidneys, that doesn't include me.

64
00:04:45.800 --> 00:04:50.279
<v Speaker 2>I donated CT contrast is rapidly eliminated. Nearly all of

65
00:04:50.279 --> 00:04:52.639
<v Speaker 2>it leaves the body and urine within twenty four hours,

66
00:04:52.959 --> 00:04:56.600
<v Speaker 2>according to the American College of radiology. The main concern

67
00:04:57.160 --> 00:05:01.120
<v Speaker 2>is not long term retention, but whether the kidneys can

68
00:05:01.160 --> 00:05:04.879
<v Speaker 2>handle the temporary load and whether an allergic reaction will occur.

69
00:05:05.600 --> 00:05:08.000
<v Speaker 2>Those at hire a kidney risk include people with chronic

70
00:05:08.079 --> 00:05:11.720
<v Speaker 2>kidney disease, diabetes related kitty to the image, dehydration, heart failure,

71
00:05:12.120 --> 00:05:15.160
<v Speaker 2>advanced age, or several contrast scans in a short period

72
00:05:15.199 --> 00:05:20.800
<v Speaker 2>of time. Allergic reactions to modern iodinated contrast are uncommon.

73
00:05:21.279 --> 00:05:24.839
<v Speaker 2>The injection itself can feel strange. Patients notice warmth offen

74
00:05:24.920 --> 00:05:28.360
<v Speaker 2>the pelvis, along with a metallic taste or mild nausea.

75
00:05:29.279 --> 00:05:32.439
<v Speaker 2>MRI contrast is usually gandolinium based. Most of it leads

76
00:05:32.439 --> 00:05:36.199
<v Speaker 2>with the kidneys, often within about a day. However, the

77
00:05:36.199 --> 00:05:38.920
<v Speaker 2>Food and Drug Administration said trace amounts can remain in

78
00:05:38.920 --> 00:05:45.040
<v Speaker 2>the brain, bones, and skin even in people with normal

79
00:05:45.120 --> 00:05:51.680
<v Speaker 2>kidney function. That's a critical factor. These findings what prompted

80
00:05:51.680 --> 00:05:54.839
<v Speaker 2>the FDA to require class warnings and patient medication guides

81
00:05:54.839 --> 00:05:57.439
<v Speaker 2>for all gandalinium based MRI contrast dies.

82
00:05:58.480 --> 00:06:00.759
<v Speaker 1>The agency said the gandolinium can remain.

83
00:06:00.480 --> 00:06:03.079
<v Speaker 2>In the body from months to years, but it has

84
00:06:03.120 --> 00:06:04.360
<v Speaker 2>not directly been linked.

85
00:06:04.199 --> 00:06:09.319
<v Speaker 1>To retention harm in patients with normal kidneys. Yeah.

86
00:06:09.480 --> 00:06:12.480
<v Speaker 2>Since the FDA advisors doctors consider which agent they use,

87
00:06:12.600 --> 00:06:16.240
<v Speaker 2>especially for patients who may need many MRIs over a lifetime.

88
00:06:16.839 --> 00:06:20.360
<v Speaker 2>Pregnant women, children, and those with inflammatory conditions must watch.

89
00:06:20.959 --> 00:06:24.279
<v Speaker 2>American College of Radiology has stated that although retention occurs,

90
00:06:24.720 --> 00:06:29.160
<v Speaker 2>harmful effects have been proven. The best time to ask

91
00:06:29.160 --> 00:06:32.240
<v Speaker 2>about contrast is when the scan is first ordered, ideally

92
00:06:32.279 --> 00:06:35.120
<v Speaker 2>during the visit with the doctor requesting the imaging, not

93
00:06:35.279 --> 00:06:38.800
<v Speaker 2>when you're already on the table before the scan. Asked

94
00:06:38.800 --> 00:06:42.600
<v Speaker 2>the ordering doctor was contrast planned? Is that iod donated

95
00:06:42.920 --> 00:06:46.480
<v Speaker 2>for CT or gandalinium based for MRI? What's the exact

96
00:06:46.560 --> 00:06:49.319
<v Speaker 2>name in dose? Has my kidney function been checked recently?

97
00:06:49.600 --> 00:06:52.839
<v Speaker 2>Since contrast agents exited the kidneys, Doctors may need to

98
00:06:52.839 --> 00:06:56.680
<v Speaker 2>know whether your kidneys can clear them safely. Common CT

99
00:06:56.879 --> 00:06:59.920
<v Speaker 2>agents you don't need to know that contrast can reveal

100
00:07:00.720 --> 00:07:03.480
<v Speaker 2>critical details that might otherwise be missed. However, a clearer

101
00:07:03.480 --> 00:07:05.600
<v Speaker 2>image is not always a more useful and the key

102
00:07:05.920 --> 00:07:08.800
<v Speaker 2>question is will it show more? But will it show

103
00:07:08.959 --> 00:07:14.279
<v Speaker 2>change with what we do next? Contrast is east easiest

104
00:07:14.279 --> 00:07:17.519
<v Speaker 2>to justify when the results could change. The next step

105
00:07:17.959 --> 00:07:21.199
<v Speaker 2>finding an abscess that needs drainage bleeding that requires urgent

106
00:07:21.240 --> 00:07:26.360
<v Speaker 2>treatment or cancer that needs stage. After the scan, most

107
00:07:26.360 --> 00:07:31.800
<v Speaker 2>patients no special detox is needed. However, hard workouts along

108
00:07:32.439 --> 00:07:36.519
<v Speaker 2>sauna sessions, fasting, laxatives, alcohol, and a stack of new

109
00:07:36.600 --> 00:07:40.399
<v Speaker 2>supplements all seem to be helpful. Most people feel normal

110
00:07:40.399 --> 00:07:45.920
<v Speaker 2>after contrast, see commedia medical attention for difficulty breathing, throat swelling,

111
00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:51.199
<v Speaker 2>chest pain, fainting. Symptoms show up later need more attention,

112
00:07:51.319 --> 00:07:54.680
<v Speaker 2>especially after gandolinium smelk watches for what he calls the

113
00:07:54.720 --> 00:07:58.720
<v Speaker 2>big five brain fog, burning, skin pain, muscle twitching, pins

114
00:07:58.720 --> 00:08:02.600
<v Speaker 2>and needle sensation, and bone pain. Some patients with persistent

115
00:08:02.680 --> 00:08:05.839
<v Speaker 2>symptoms turned to kulation, a treatment which uses a drug

116
00:08:05.839 --> 00:08:08.279
<v Speaker 2>devind certain metal so that they can exit the body

117
00:08:08.319 --> 00:08:12.879
<v Speaker 2>in urine. American College of Radiation used as a neutral term.

118
00:08:13.319 --> 00:08:22.399
<v Speaker 2>Symptoms associated gadlinium exposure. Remove complete, I'll be talking to.

119
00:08:22.360 --> 00:08:22.839
<v Speaker 1>You right now.

120
00:08:22.920 --> 00:08:26.240
<v Speaker 2>Remove complete a wonderful prep taken for about five to

121
00:08:26.279 --> 00:08:28.959
<v Speaker 2>seven days. We'll get all that junk out of your system,

122
00:08:29.079 --> 00:08:32.519
<v Speaker 2>as will end. A seat assystem a combination. You can

123
00:08:32.600 --> 00:08:38.159
<v Speaker 2>even throw other entities in there, including some liver support,

124
00:08:38.240 --> 00:08:42.039
<v Speaker 2>which can help. Want more information on that, check it
