LegalView.com your complete online resource for everything legal, would like to inform readers that they can now find even more complete, accurate information on the troubling medical condition Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis (NSF) at nephrogenic-systemic-fibrosis.legalview.com (http://nsf-nephrogenic-systemic-fibrosis.legalview.com/gadolinium-nephrogenic-systemic-fibrosis.aspx) portal.
First identified in 1997, NSF occurs only in a few patients -- those who have a serious kidney disease and have undergone MRI or magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) tests. Many
scientists believe NSF is caused by exposure to gadolinium, used as a dye in MRI/MRA tests, as argued in a January 2006 article published in the Oxford University Press' journal
Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation. In response, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has already recommended that doctors avoid gadolinium and MRI/MRAs in general, in patients with
kidney failure. Researchers in the United States and Europe are working to determine whether the substance should be banned altogether.
Visitors who would like to learn more about NSF, gadolinium exposure and related health concerns are invited to visit LegalView.com's newly re-launched gadolinium and NSF information
portal. Recognizing that NSF will be a public health problem for decades, LegalView has established a collection of original articles on the disease; a glossary of terms; up-to-date news
articles; FDA alerts; and jury verdicts and settlements. In addition to new features, such as detailed information about the companies that manufacture gadolinium dyes, as well as
treatment resources, visitors to the NSF portal can utilize the free NSF lawyer (http://brain-injury.legalview.com/), a construction accident attorney (http://mesothelioma.legalview.com/find-mesothelioma-law-firm.aspx). Along with the attorney referral services for these different issues, readers can find original, factual and
clearly written information; the latest news and research, including blogs dedicated to a specific legal issue; government information and releases; and guides to relevant legal and
medical terms.
