Knee MRI (with contrast)

This code records a knee MRI imaged after contrast was given. In the knee it usually means an MR arthrogram — dilute dye injected into the joint so it seeps into any split in the cartilage. Its classic use is a knee that has already had meniscal surgery, where scar and a fresh tear look alike.
