What is Knee MRI (with and without contrast)? Read the full explainer →

Knee MRI (with and without contrast)

This is a knee MRI done in two passes — plain first, then again after gadolinium is given by vein. The question it answers is not whether something is torn but whether something is growing, inflamed or infected, because only tissue with a blood supply takes up the dye.
