Arthrogram
Arthrogram
Our Imaging Services provides MRI, CT and Diagnostic Radiographic Arthrograms. An arthrogram is a procedure that the Radiologist inserts a small needle into the joint of interest and injects contrast media and/or medication. After the contrast media is injected into the joint images are taken in the appropriate modality (MRI, CT or Diagnostic Radiography).
Preparation of Examination
- Your Physician or Imaging Services will inform you of specific instructions for preparations of your examinations, if needed (many Diagnostic Radiography does not need preparations)
- Inform your Physician or Radiologic Technologist if there is a chance of pregnancy
