Predicting Stroke Risk in ICAD With Novel MRI

"Ferumoxytol contains iron and is used for the treatment of anemia, so it may affect any iron supplementation prescribed by a physician. Iron is metabolized in the liver, so impaired liver function could interfere with the metabolism of ferumoxytol.~Patients will receive up to a total maximum ferumoxytol dose of 4 mg/kg (71.6 µmol Fe/kg) of body weight, diluted in 200 mL of 0.9% normal saline, at a rate of 10 ml/minute for 20 minutes, The injection rate and maximum dosage are well within the safety thresholds regarding the FDA recommendation of ferumoxytol use."
