MR arthrography is slightly more accurate than conventional MRI in detecting TFCC lesions of the wrist

MR and CT arthrography of the wrist.

The study of the wrist represents a major diagnostic challenge because of its complex anatomy and the small size of individual structures. Recent advances in imaging techniques have increased our diagnostic capabilities. However, 3T magnets, multichannel specific wrist coils, and new MRI sequences have not restricted the indications of arthrographic imaging techniques (CT arthrography and MR ar...

Wrist MR arthrography: how, why, when.

MR imaging of the wrist frequently represents a diagnostic challenge for radiologists because of the complex anatomy of this joint, small size of its components, and little known pathologic conditions. MR arthrography combines the advantages of conventional MR imaging and arthrography by improving the visualization of small intra-articular abnormalities. This article reviews the current role of...

comparison of indirect mr arthrography with conventional mri in the diagnosis of knee pathologies in patients with knee pain

conclusions our results have shown that indirect mr arthrography had greater diagnostic accuracy in regards to the sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values than conventional mri in knee pathologies. results in all of the pathologies studied, the sensitivity, specificity, and the positive and negative predictive values were evaluated. a high rate of accuracy was foun...

Indirect MRA has More Diagnostic Value than Conventional MRI in Partial and Subscapularis Tears of Rotator Cuff

Background and purpose: Determining the severity and site of rotator cuff tear (RCT) is very important for choosing a treatment method. In this study, the diagnostic value of indirect magnetic resonance arthrography (I-MRA) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were compared. Materials and methods: This cross-sectional study was performed in 36 patients attending an orthopedic clinic in 2020. P...

Comparison of conventional 3-T MRI and 1.5-T MR arthrography of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI)
