Abstract

The purpose of this study was to analyse the accuracy of combined arthrography and computed tomography in pediatric radiology. 23 patients were selected and the joints studied (n=25) were: elbow (1), shoulder (2), knee (8) and hip (14). The contribution of computed arthrography varies according to the joint and the disease concerned. Osteochondritis dissecans of the knee appears to be the best indication.
