Knee arthrography. Evolution and current status.
This article explores arthrography of the knee beginning with a brief historical perspective of conventional knee arthrography and culminating in direct and indirect MR arthrography of the knee. This article discusses the advantages of MR arthrography in the radiologic assessment of the postoperative meniscus, abnormalities of articular cartilage, and synovial-based processes.
