Doctors test moving MRI to spot hidden knee injuries
NCT ID NCT02787096
Summary
This study tested whether measuring how much the knee moves during an MRI scan could help doctors better diagnose partial tears of the ACL, a common knee ligament. Researchers enrolled 151 people with knee injuries who were already scheduled for an MRI. They compared the new 'dynamic' measurement technique to standard MRI images to see which was more accurate for spotting these hard-to-diagnose partial tears.
