This test when someone has long-lasting knee pain, swelling, locking, or instability. It is especially helpful for finding problems like ligament tears (ACL, PCL), meniscus injuries, cartilage damage, infections, inflammation, or tumors. The contrast makes it easier to see subtle injuries or areas of irritation that a regular MRI might miss. During this step, a small amount of contrast dye is usually given through an IV for more clear information.
