CORRELATION OF MRI VS ARTHROSCOPIC CORRELATION OF INTERNAL DERANGEMENT OF KNEE (IDK)
Journal Title: Journal of Evidence Based Medicine and Healthcare - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 13
Abstract
It is to prove the validness of MRI in diagnosing the internal structural pathology in IDK with confidence compared to gold standard arthroscopy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Ours is prospective study. We took arthroscopy as gold standard and took systematic review of MRI and arthroscopy in diagnosing IDK in 54 pts. RESULTS: MRI is 100% sensitive in diagnosing ACL PCL, meniscal injuries and hence the best screening tool. But many of grade 1/2 tears of meniscal tears in MRI are normal at arthroscopy. Majority of false positives occur in posterior horn of lateral meniscus
