[MR arthrography]

Review article on MR arthrography: technique and main indications.

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.
