In the absence of compelling arguments to the contrary, arthrography should wait several weeks after a fresh trauma, i.e., until the hemarthrosis is resorbed and a good view of the interior of the joint is guaranteed. This holds especially true for fresh meniscus lesions combined with injury to the collateral ligament, where the diagnosis is not always clear.
