[The use of magnetic resonance imaging in diagnostics of injury of the knee joint meniscuses].
We analyzed the clinical symptoms, mechanisms of damage of the meniscuses in 286 children with special attention to diagnostic difficulties and causes of tardy hospitalization. MRI was performed in 286 patients for the diagnosis of injuries of meniscuses. In 208 children the diagnosis was made by arthroscopy. A statistical analysis has shown that the sensitivity of MRI was 89.1%, the specificity was 95.1%.
