Objectives: To assess the diagnostic validity and reliability of magnetic resonance arthrography in identifying lesion triangular intrinsic wrist ligaments fibrocartilaginous complex based on arthroscopy as reference standard preferred modality imaging. Methodology: This was a retrospective validation study that carried out at Radiology department PESSI (Punjab Employees Social Security) Hospit...

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) offers great potential for planning, guiding, monitoring and controlling interventions. MR arthrography (MRAr) is the imaging gold standard for assessing small ligament and fibrocartilage injury in joints. In contemporary practice, MRAr consists of two consecutive sessions: (1) an interventional session where a needle is driven to the joint space and MR contrast...

Magnetic Resonance arthrography is considered the gold standard imaging technique for the study of shoulder instability and tendon tears.We describe an image artefact, characterized by decreased signal intensity of the paramagnetic gadolinium chelate contrast agent during a shoulder Magnetic Resonance arthrography, attributable to an incorrect concentration which does not cause evident capsular...

Background Indirect quantification of mitral regurgitation (MR) by cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR), currently used as a second-line diagnostic tool after echocardiography, can be achieved by three methods. Each method has its advantages and disadvantages due to the limitations of the underlying techniques used to determine ventricular volumes and/or flow information. The aim of the stud...

BACKGROUND Various pediatric conditions often necessitate a morphologic examination of the hip joint in infancy or childhood, and multiple imaging options have been employed to achieve this goal. Arthrography is one such modality. Different types of contrast media have been utilized and include pharmacologic contrast agents, air, and carbon dioxide. There are scattered reports of complications ...
