To determine the diagnostic accuracy of non-arthrographic MR imaging, conventional MR arthrography, and 3D T1-weighted volumetric interpolated breath-hold examination (VIBE) MR arthrography sequences ...
A retrospective study of 216 patients who underwent non-arthrographic MR imaging, conventional MR arthrography, VIBE MRI arthrography, and CT arthrogram between January 2011 and March 2022 was conduct...
Sixteen of 216 patients were excluded. Twenty-three of 200 shoulders had glenoid bare spot on CT arthrographic images. The glenoid bare spot was detected in 11 (47.8%) and 7 (30.4%) patients on conven...
A 3D high-resolution T1-weighted VIBE MR arthrography sequence may yield diagnostic performance that is comparable with that of CT arthrography in the diagnosis of glenoid bare spot....
•Glenoid bare spot should not be misdiagnosed as a transchondral defect of the glenoid surface by radiologists. •A 3D high-resolution T1-weighted VIBE MR arthrography sequence may be used as a high-se...
Surgery for polydactyly of the foot aims to achieve good cosmesis and improve shoe fitting. An accurate understanding of toe morphology will help to minimize the skin incision or optimize the surgical...
We included 36 digits of 31 patients (16 males and 15 females), including 5 bilateral cases. The age at surgery ranged from 9 to 75 months (mean, 20 mo). Intraoperative arthrography was performed and ...
Full agreement occurred in 66.7% of the radiographs and in 75% of arthrograms. The mean kappa coefficient was 0.58, indicating fair agreement, between the reference and the radiologic assessment, whil...
Intraoperative arthrography is an easy and reliable diagnostic method that can be used to determine the detailed articular shape....

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of MR arthrography in detecting isolated posterior glenoid labral injuries using arthroscopy as the reference standard....
MR arthrograms of 97 patients with isolated posterior glenoid labral tears by arthroscopy and those of 96 age and gender-matched controls with intact posterior labra were reviewed by two blinded radio...
Posterior labral pathology was detected by MR arthrography with sensitivities of 76% and 84% for readers 1 and 2, and a specificity of 88% for both readers. Kappa value for interreader agreement was 0...
MR arthrography is accurate in detecting posterior glenoid labroligamentous injuries....
This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the potential applications of dual-energy CT (DECT) in improving image quality and the diagnostic capabilities of CT arthrography (CTA) in clinical prac...
To evaluate the prevalence of the 'posterior crescent sign' in symptomatic patients referred for MRI/MR arthrogram of the hip and identify any correlation with imaging features of joint pathology....
Retrospective imaging assessment of a cohort of 1462 hips, from 1380 included MR examinations (82 bilateral) retrieved from a search of all examinations in patients 16-50 years old from June 2018 to J...
Fifty-one hips (3.5%) were positive for the posterior crescent sign, median age of 45.8 years (range 17.8-50.0) and 29 (58%) in women. Radiographic findings included the following: mean lateral centre...
The posterior crescent sign occurs in 3.5% of symptomatic young and middle-aged adults on MR. It is associated with overt and borderline hip dysplasia and other findings of hip instability. It is also...
Osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLT) usually have non-specific clinical symptoms, and radiographs have a low sensitivity for detecting OLT. The purpose of this study is to compare the diagnostic v...
We retrospectively reviewed patients who had OLT between 2015 and 2020. Patients with symptomatic OLT as a surgical indication, who were treated arthroscopically, and underwent both CTa and MRI before...
Thirty-five patients were included. Accuracy rates of MRI and CTa for grading OLT, compared to those of arthroscopy, were 57.1% and 88.6%, respectively. Among 15 mismatched cases in MRI, 12 lesions (8...
CTa was statistically significantly better in detecting chondral flapping or subchondral exposure lesions for OLT than MRI on using arthroscopy as the reference standard. Because the stability of the ...

Currently, Magnetic Resonance arthrography procedures require two rooms and two imaging modalities: fluoroscopically guided needle insertion in a fluoroscopy suite, followed by diagnostic MRI in a sep...
The usefulness of direct MR arthrography of the shoulder with additional ABER position (ABER-MRA) has always been discussed. The goals of the following review are to analyze the usefulness of this tec...
For this review we assessed the current literature databases of the Cochrane Library, Embase, and PubMed with regard to MRA in the ABER position up to the February 28, 2022. Search terms were "shoulde...
For anterior instability the use of ABER-MRA in the ABER position led to a significant increase in sensitivity for detecting lesions of the labral ligamentous complex compared with standard 3-plane sh...
Based on the currently available literature, ABER-MRA achieves a level of evidence C in the detection of pathologies of the anteroinferior labroligamentous complex. With regard to the evaluation of SL...
· ABER-MRA is useful in the evaluation of pathologies of the anteroinferior labroligamentous complex. · ABER-MRA does not increase sensitivity or specificity with regard to rotator cuff tears. · ABER-...

The relationship between retear that may occur after rotator cuff repair and patient satisfaction is not well established. This study aimed to determine whether the types and size of the retear evalua...
A total of 50 patients who were diagnosed with rotator cuff retear after undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair were included in this study. All the patients were dichotomously classified into th...
Thirty-nine patients were classified into the satisfactory group and 11 patients were classified into the dissatisfactory group. There were no differences in age, sex, occupation, dominant hand, durat...
The AP length and area of the retear site estimated using CTA were confirmed as the significant risk factors for dissatisfaction. However, the type of repaired rotator cuff judged by the attachment st...
The radiological imaging industry is developing and starting to offer a range of novel artificial intelligence software solutions for clinical radiology. Deep learning reconstruction of magnetic reson...
Our case shows images from magnetic resonance arthrography under traction of the right hip joint from a 30-year-old, otherwise healthy, male patient....
The undersampled image data when reconstructed by a deep learning tool can contain false-positive cartilage delamination and false-positive diffuse cartilage defects....
In the future, precision of this novel technology will have to be put to thorough testing. Bias of systems, in particular created by the choice of training data, will have to be part of those assessme...
