1 There's no such thing as a natural artificial sweetener. 2  No artificial sweeteners are proven safe for IBS. 3  Saccharin (Sweet'N Low) , aspartame (Equal and Nutrasweet), sucralose (Splenda), sorbitol and other sugar alcohols (xylitol, maltitol, erythritol), are the most popular artificial sweeteners in the US.
This procedure can be used to diagnose a joint problem, perform surgery that repairs a joint problem, remove a loose or foreign body, or monitor a disease or the effectiveness of a treatment. Arthroscopy is commonly performed on the knee, shoulder, and ankle. It also can be done on the hip, elbow, and wrist. During arthroscopy , the arthroscope is inserted into your joint through a small cut (incision) in the skin. The arthroscope has a light source and a video camera attached to it. Images from the camera can be seen on a video monitor. These magnified images provide a clear picture of your joint.
Arthrography is medical imaging to evaluate conditions of joints. It can either be direct or indirect. Indirect arthrography is a medical imaging technique in which contrast material is injected into the blood stream and eventually absorbs into the joint.With direct arthrography, however, the contrast material is injected directly into the joint.Direct arthrography is the preferred method because it is better for distending or enlarging the joint and imaging small internal structures, thus allowing for better evaluation of diseases or conditions within the joint. Direct arthrography is particularly effective for detecting disease of the structures within the joints such as ligaments, tendons and cartilage. 2  This is particularly true for the shoulder in the setting of shoulder dislocation and in the hip, wrist and elbow.
