CT-guided puncture for direct MR-arthrography of the shoulder: Description of possible techniques

Journal Title: Journal of Radiology and Imaging - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 1

Abstract

The following report describes the possible techniques of CT-guided puncture for direct magnetic resonance (MR) arthrography of the shoulder. CT-guided puncture can be regarded as an alternative technique to fluoroscopic- or ultrasound-guided puncture for MR-arthrography of the shoulder with high efficiency, low dose and extremely low complication rate.
