Evaluation of a modified method for arthrography of the knee.
A modified method for knee arthrography based on the technique introduced by Lindblom has been applied in 1 200 patients. The arthrographic reports on 132 patients submitted to arthrotomy are compared with the findings at surgery. The modified technique is easy to perform and offers a fairly reliable all-round method for diagnosis of both meniscus and crucial ligament lesions.
