Knee MR arthrogram MRI Protocol

-->

 Indications: evaluating for meniscal retears in a postoperative knee.

Sequences Knee MR arthrogram MRI Protocol:

·        Oblique sagittal T1 SE with fat saturation

·        Oblique sagittal PD FSE

·        Coronal T1 SE

·        Coronal T1 SE with fat saturation

·        Coronal STIR

·        Axial T1 SE with fat saturation

Comments Knee MR arthrogram MRI Protocol:

·        Keep ACE wrap around knee during scan, to direct intra-articular contrast into regions around the menisci.

Dictation template Knee MR arthrogram MRI Protocol

After the administration of 50 mL of dilute intra-articular Gadolinium contrast, sagittal T1 spin echo with fat saturation and PD fast spin echo, coronal T1 spin echo with and without fat saturation, coronal STIR, axial T1 spin echo with fat saturation through the knee.
