Magnetic resonance arthrography

Usha Chundru et al. Radiol Clin North Am. 2009 May.

Abstract

Magnetic resonance arthrography is widely used throughout the world for joint imaging. It extends the capabilities of conventional MR imaging because contrast solution distends the joint capsule, outlines intraarticular structures, and extends into soft tissue tears and defects. MR arthrography exploits the natural advantages gained from a joint effusion and can be performed on any joint.
