After an angiogram, how does the dye come out of the body?

Renal: The dye used in angiograms is metabolized through the kidneys and excreted in the urine.

Kidneys: The contrast agent is filtered from the body by the kidney. This can take a day or so. Drinking fluids after the exam helps increase the rate of removal and helps protect the kidneys.
