Intravenous urography involves the use of a contrast agent that is filtered and excreted by the kidneys. Therefore, this procedure is contraindicated in patients with anuria (complete absence of urine production) or renal failure (inability of the kidneys to filter waste products from the blood). The procedure may still be done in elderly patients if they do not have anuria or renal failure.
