Can I use intra-articular gadolinium for MRI scans?
Using intra-articular gadolinium based contrast agents is allowed when following the Clinical Graphics MRI protocol.
FYI: Intra-articular injection of gadolinium-based contrast agents is widely and commonly performed at most larger MR centers around the world. Known as gadolinium-enhanced MR arthrography, this technique has been proved valuable in demonstrating small tears in cartilage and ligaments not visible on routine MRI.
