MR imaging-based diagnosis and classification of meniscal tears.
Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is currently the modality of choice for detecting meniscal injuries and planning subsequent treatment. A thorough understanding of the imaging protocols, normal meniscal anatomy, surrounding anatomic structures, and anatomic variants and pitfalls is critical to ensure diagnostic accuracy and prevent unnecessary surgery. High-spatial-resolution imaging of the meni...
متن کاملMR Imaging after Meniscal Surgery
-stress fractures with surrounding bone marrow edema are most commonly seen in the medial femoral condyle and medial tibia secondary to radial or complex tears of the medial meniscus; the bone cut off from its blood supply by the subchondral fracture is at risk to develop osteonecrosis, therefore a follow-up MRI is typically useful in this setting to ensure fracture healing and exclude the deve...
متن کاملMagnetic Resonance Imaging for Meniscal Tears of the Knee.
In brief: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). has become a standard diagnostic technique in many medical facilities for evaluating the menisci of the knee. MRI provides superior soft-tissue contrast with high resolution and takes little time (typically less than 30 minutes). It does not require intra-articular contrast media and is not limited to surface abnormalities, as are arthrography and art...
متن کاملKnee MRI: Meniscal Tears and Postoperative Cartilage Imaging
Currently magnetic resonance (MR) is the modality of choice for assessing the meniscus with reported accuracies, sensitivities, and specificities ranging between 85% to 95% in detecting meniscal tears. Once a tear is identified, it is imperative not only to localize the tear, but to describe the tear pattern, extent, and any associated chondrosis to guide treatment options for the referring phy...
متن کاملNormal MR imaging anatomy of the knee.
Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is the preferred imaging modality for evaluating internal derangement of the knee, due to its superior soft tissue contrast resolution, multiplanar imaging capability, and lack of ionizing radiation. The superb image quality facilitates learning of normal imaging anatomy and conceptualizing spatial relationships of anatomic structures, leading to improved underst...
