1 Gadolinium deposition in nephrogenic fibrosing dermopathy
Alan S. Boyd, MD, John A. Zic, MD, Jerrold L. Abraham, MD  Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology  Volume 56, Issue 1, Pages (January 2007) DOI: /j.jaad Copyright © 2007 American Academy of Dermatology, Inc. Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 Scanning electron microscopy, backscattered electron images of cut surface of paraffin block of skin biopsy, low magnification (A), and detail (B), showing dermal vessel wall deposits of calcium, phosphorus, sodium, and gadolinium. Energy dispersive x-ray spectra show major composition of bright areas is sodium-calcium-phosphate (C), with gadolinium detected at much lower concentrations (D).

3 Fig 2 Scanning electron microscopy, backscattered electron images of cut surface of paraffin block of skin biopsy, low magnification (A), and detail (B), showing deposition of calcium, phosphorus, sodium, and gadolinium along the basal lamina of eccrine sweat glands. Energy dispersive x-ray spectra show major composition of bright areas is sodium-calcium-phosphate (C), with gadolinium detected at much lower concentrations (D).
