MRI Arthrography
An arthrogram is an MRI study of the joint that has been injected with a contrast agent. Joints typically examined are the shoulder, hip, and knee. The contrast material is injected into your affected joint. This allows the doctor to see the soft tissue structures of your joint in and MRI including your tendons, ligaments and muscles.
Reasons an arthrogram is performed:
- To identify problems in your joint capsule, ligaments, cartilage (including tears, degeneration, or disease), and the bones in the joint.
- To identify abnormal growths or fluid-filled cysts.
- To check needle placement before injecting a painkiller, such as a corticosteroid injection.
We have multiple Radiologists with Muscoskeletal training that can perform these procedures. MRI Arthrograms can be scheduled in our Huntington, Hauppauge and Bay Shore locations. We currently perform Hip, Shoulder, Wrist Arthrograms,. Please contact our offices regarding any joint or procedure that is needed.
