Review of three magnetic resonance arthrography related infections.

Abstract

We report three cases of intra-articular infection which followed injection for magnetic resonance arthrography. In an effort to reduce the risk of arthrogram related infection, representatives from radiology, infectious disease medicine, and microbiology departments convened to analyze the contributing factors. The proposed source was oral contamination from barium swallow studies which preceded the arthrogram injections in the same room. We propose safety measures to reduce incidence of arthrogram related infections.
