Muskloskeletal Ultrasound Versus Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Meniscal Abnormalities

NCT03490799 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 30

Last updated 2018-04-06

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

clinical examination alone is usually insufficient in assessment of knee meniscus and a more reliable diagnosis can be achieved by using the knee ultrasound , magnetic resonance imaging.

magnetic resonance imaging is considered the most noninvasive diagnostic method of detecting lesions of the intra-articular reliable knee structures. However, there are recent reports concluding that ultrasound is a valid technique for diagnosing meniscal lesions, even though it is not part of the standard protocol for evaluating injuries to the intra-articular knee structures.
