Articular cartilage of the knee can be evaluated with high accuracy by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in preoperative patients with knee pain, but image quality and reporting are variable. This article discusses the normal MRI appearance of articular cartilage as well as the common MRI abnormalities of knee cartilage that may be considered for operative treatment. This article focuses on a practical approach to preoperative MRI of knee articular cartilage using routine MRI techniques. Current and future directions of knee MRI related to articular cartilage are also discussed.
膝关节的关节软骨可以通过术前膝关节疼痛患者的磁共振成像(MRI)进行高精度评估,但图像质量和报告结果存在差异。本文讨论了关节软骨的正常 MRI 表现以及可能考虑手术治疗的常见膝关节软骨 MRI 异常。本文重点介绍了使用常规 MRI 技术进行膝关节关节软骨术前 MRI 的实用方法。还讨论了与关节软骨相关的膝关节 MRI 的当前和未来方向。
