Gadolinium-MRI

Serious health risks linked to Gadolinium

Gadolinium is a chemical used by doctors to distinguish between normal and abnormal tissue in the body. Patients receive Gadolinium when undergoing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA).

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has warned doctors and patients about a possible Gadolinium side effect called Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis (NSF) or Nephrogenic Fibrosing Dermopathy (NFD). Both NSF and NFD are debilitating and potentially fatal diseases with no cure.

If you or a loved one experienced any adverse Gadolinium side effects, please contact a personal injury lawyer at Hansen Dirani & Associates. We can discuss your legal options, which may include filing a Gadolinium lawsuit. Call 877-583-0700 today. A delay may affect your legal rights.

NSF symptoms include a thickening of the skin and connective tissues that inhibits the patient’s ability to move and may result in broken bones. Other organs also are at risk.

The FDA has asked manufacturers to include a new boxed warning on the product labeling of all gadolinium-based contrast agents. Gadolinium lawsuits already have been filed.
