  • Title: Is there still a role for knee arthrography?
    Author: Korn MW, Spitzer RM, Robinson KE.
    Journal: Arthroscopy; 1985; 1(1):40-3. PubMed ID: 4091908.
    Abstract:
    To assess the continued value of arthrograms in the wake of arthroscopic diagnosis, an analysis of arthrographic data on 240 knees was carried out. The accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of the arthograms were compared with the arthroscopic findings for each knee. For meniscal lesions, the arthrogram is reasonably accurate. An algorithm is presented that defines the relative roles of arthrography and arthroscopy.
