About this trial
This is an interventional diagnostic trial for Joint Abnormalities focused on measuring Arthrogram, Contrast, Joint, Ultrasound
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- clinically ordered arthrogram
Exclusion Criteria:
- pregnant women
- children under the age of 18
Sites / Locations
- University of Michigan Hospital
Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Arm 2
Arm Type
Experimental
Experimental
Arm Label
Ultrasound Pre-Arthrogram
Ultrasound Post-Arthrogram
Arm Description
Ultrasound of the joint(s) before the clinically scheduled arthrogram of the same joint(s)
Ultrasound of the joint(s) after the clinically scheduled arthrogram of the same joint(s), performed while the body still has a contrast agent in it from the arthrogram. The contrast agent varies with different joint areas, but is usually iodine based (like Ultravist.)
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
To add to the general knowledge of the researchers and to possibly benefit future patients in the diagnosis and treatment of joint abnormalities.

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the usefulness of contrast in ultrasonography of the joints.
Detailed Description
To determine if using intra-articular contrast (contrast injected into a joint) will provide clearer, more precise ultrasound images of the joints then an ultrasound done without the use of a contrast agent.

Ultrasound
Intervention Description
Ultrasound of the joint(s) after a clinically scheduled arthrogram is performed. Ultrasound images will then be compared to the arthrogram findings, other imaging findings such as MRI and surgical pathological findings such as arthroscopy (if any.)
