Curr Probl Diagn Radiol. 1980 Jan-Feb;9(1):1-37. doi: 10.1016/s0363-0188(80)80009-0.

Abstract

Arthrography is being performed more often, probably due to its recognition by radiologists and orthopedists as a useful diagnostic aid. Many recent advances in technique have helped to increase diagnostic accuracy and it has earned wider acceptance. The fundamentals of arthrography are fairly well known and covered in the literature. This monograph attempts to bring together practical points considered to be relevant to the arthrographer. The subjects covered for each joint are self-explanatory; the local anatomy, the technique involved and interpretation of the results are discussed from the purely medical and technical point of view and films are provided as a technical guide.
