A member asked:
How long does contrast dye stay in your system?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: The rate of clearance (or excretion) depends on the renal function of the patient. In patients with normal kidney function, 50% of the injected dose will be excreted at one hour, ~83% at three hours, and almost 100% at 24 hours.
