title: [MR arthrography].
abstract: Review article on MR arthrography: technique and main indications. Intra-articular injection of diluted Gadolinium provides good distension and better appreciation of intra-articular structures than standard MRI. It is useful for partial tears of the rotator cuff, in cases of gleno-humeral instability, lesions of the acetabular labrum and hyaline articular cartilage and also for elbow, wrist and ankle ligamentous ruptures.
