Gadolinium-based contrast agents have been considered extremely safe drugs with a low incidence of acute adverse reactions. Most of the reactions are mild and physiologic. However, despite being extremely rare, acute severe adverse reactions, including anaphylaxis, may occur. In this article, adverse reactions are discussed with regard to their classification, pathophysiology, symptoms, and risk factors.
