I'm scheduled for an MRI of my liver and the doctor mentioned using Eovist to get clearer images. Has anyone had experience with this contrast dye? I'm a bit nervous about the potential side effects, especially the severe ones. I've read about allergic reactions, kidney problems, and tissue damage at the injection site. Are these rare or happening more often? Also, what about the less serious side effects? Are they common? And how do they feel? How soon after injection do they usually happen? Does anyone know if there's a way to mitigate them? Thanks in advance!
