Abstract

The purpose of this study, to evaluation of the knee injuries is very essential for the proper management and outcome. This study has been done to know the pattern of distribution of different types and incidence of injuries in traumatic knee joint by MR imaging.

Material and Methods: MR imaging of the knee on the advice of the referring doctor symptomatic patients who were referred from various service referral hospitals and units with history of trauma and clinical suspicion (IDK) in the department of Radiodiagnosis served as the subjects for this study from December2016 – September 2018. Because of its, evident potential, we designed the present study with the goals of evaluating the utility of MRI.

Results:  MRI in detecting cruciate ligament and meniscal injuries as compared to arthroscopy
