CT coronary angiography (CTCA) and invasive coronary angiography (ICA) are widely used to evaluate coronary artery disease (CAD). Both involve iodinated contrast, which may cause contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI), particularly in high-risk patients. This study compared the incidence of AKI following CTCA versus ICA in hospitalized patients with symptomatic CAD.
