such as computed tomography and fluoroscopy. Another advantage is the portability of x-ray equipment. Portable x-ray machines and imaging cassettes allow technologists to acquire images without transporting a patient to another department within a facility, expediting the opportunity for diagnosis in the...
The purpose of this paper is to describe our experience utilizing a pre-injection MRI protocol of the wrist and ankle for localizing disease activity followed by fluoroscopically guided joint injections in children with JIA. 展开 关键词: MRI JIA Fluoroscopy Children DOI: 10.1007/s00247-011-...
Objective:To compare ultrasound- (US), fluoroscopy- (FL), and palpation-guided contrast injection techniques used for dorsal radio-carpal wrist MRA. Materials and methods:Patients with chronic wrist pain were randomized as to which injection technique they underwent into three groups of 50 ...
The median time required for the fluoroscopy-guided two-compartment wrist arthrography was 2.8 min (IQR 2.0–5.0 min). Irrespective of scan protocol, the median time interval between the final contrast injection (into the radiocarpal joint) and completion of the automated scanner-side image reconstr...
Ultrasound-guided Versus Computed Tomography Fluoroscopy-assisted Cervical Transforaminal Steroid Injection for the Treatment of Radicular Pain in the Lowe... To estimate the contrast dispersion short-term clinical efficacy and safety of ultrasound (US)-guided transforaminal steroid injection (TFSI) compared...
Joint distension and image quality were significantly better with imaging-guided techniques (P < 0.001 and P = 0.003).ConclusionsUS-guided radio-carpal injection is a less time-consuming, more tolerable, and successful radiation-free method when compared to FL guidance. Palpation-guided injections ...
