Diagnostic Accuracy of Magnetic Resonance Imaging in the Detection of Meniscal Injury in Patients With Knee Trauma: Keeping Arthroscopy as a Gold Standard
This study substantiates that MRI possesses a high degree of sensitivity in the identification of meniscal injuries. It serves as an effective preliminary assessment tool for pinpointing patients who could potentially benefit from therapeutic arthroscopy, thereby often negating the necessity for diagnostic arthroscopy.
