title: [Magnetic resonance imaging in menisco-ligamentous lesions. Comparison with arthroscopy. Apropos of 37 cases].
abstract: Results of magnetic resonance imaging of 37 cases of lesions of meniscus and ligaments of knee are reported and compared with arthroscopy findings. Use of MRI appears to be an excellent non-invasive diagnostic method, with current major indications in acute knee injuries and for evaluation of chronic laxity. It also allows guidance of surgical procedures. In the future, MRI should replace the more aggressive arthrography, this with a relatively short examination time, since sagittal section imaging in TI permits detection of the majority of lesions.
