Description Neurotoxicity from contrast agents is a rare complication of angiographic procedures. Reported clinical effects include transient cortical blindness, encephalopathy, seizures, and focal neurologic deficits. Imaging may show enhancement in the occipital lobes of patients with cortical blindness due to contrast deposition in the tissue. Most cases return to baseline visual function within a few days.
