===Treating risk factors===
Risk factors can sometimes be treated or at least mitigated, especially if having suddenly appeared, such as a decreased renal function when it was previously normal. In such cases a common easily treated cause is dehydration.
'''Hydration''' by drinking or intravenous volume expander, either before or after contract administration, decreases the risk of contrast-induced nephropathy.<ref name="YangHiremath2013">{{cite journal|last1=Yang|first1=Xiaoming|last2=Hiremath|first2=Swapnil|last3=Akbari|first3=Ayub|last4=Shabana|first4=Wael|last5=Fergusson|first5=Dean A.|last6=Knoll|first6=Greg A.|title=Prevention of Contrast-Induced Acute Kidney Injury: Is Simple Oral Hydration Similar To Intravenous?

===Underweight or overweight?===
At moderate weight deviations, corrections can be made by adjusting contrast dose proportionally to patient weight. Still, the needed dose is actually proportional to the ''lean body weight'' of the patient. For both men and women weighing more than about 85 kg,<ref group="notes">At above this weight, calculated contrast amount with the Boer formula deviates more than 10% from both the weight-unadjusted amount, as well as the amount taken proportionally to the weight, for both men and women.</ref> contrast dose is optimally calculated by the Boer formula, using height and weight of the patient.<ref name="CarusoDe Santis2018">{{cite journal|last1=Caruso|first1=Damiano|last2=De Santis|first2=Domenico|last3=Rivosecchi|first3=Flaminia|last4=Zerunian|first4=Marta|last5=Panvini|first5=Nicola|last6=Montesano|first6=Marta|last7=Biondi|first7=Tommaso|last8=Bellini|first8=Davide|last9=Rengo|first9=Marco|last10=Laghi|first10=Andrea|title=Lean Body Weight-Tailored Iodinated Contrast Injection in Obese Patient: Boer versus James Formula|journal=BioMed Research International|volume=2018|year=2018|pages=1–6|issn=2314-6133|doi=10.1155/2018/8521893}}</ref> Taking this formula, the needed volume of IV contrast from the unadjusted volume given in the table above becomes:
*For women: Weight-adjusted volume = Unadjusted volume × ((0.00583 × W) + (0.011 × H) − 1.12)
, where W is body weight in kilograms and H is body height in centimeters.
