The purpose of this study is to determine the usefulness of contrast in ultrasonography of the joints.
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.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultrasound Pre-Arthrogram | Experimental | Ultrasound of the joint(s) before the clinically scheduled arthrogram of the same joint(s) |
|
| Ultrasound Post-Arthrogram | Experimental | 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.) |

| Ultrasound | Procedure | 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.) |
