Knee
The knee is the largest joint in the body and plays a vital role in daily movements such as walking and climbing stairs. It is composed of a complex structure of bones, cartilage, ligaments, and muscles, making it susceptible to injuries and wear. RadCare Radiology Center offers state-of-the-art imaging technologies to accurately diagnose knee issues and ensure optimal treatment options.
MRI Knee
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the Knee at Radcare: High Accuracy and Advanced Care
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is an advanced method that provides high-quality, detailed images of the knee joint without exposing the patient to radiation. The technique relies on a strong magnetic field that aligns the hydrogen atoms in the body in one direction, and with the addition of a radio signal, these atoms begin to vibrate. The resulting signals are translated into detailed cross-sectional images that show the internal structures of the knee.
Advantages of MRI for the Knee:
- Radiation-Free:
- Safe for children and pregnant women.
- Accurate Images:
- Displays detailed images of ligaments, cartilage, tendons, and bones.
- Painless and Non-Surgical Procedure:
- Does not require any surgical interventions or harmful chemicals.
Conditions Diagnosed by MRI for the Knee:
- Ligament and Tendon Tears:
- Such as anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears or lateral ligament tears.
- Meniscal Injuries:
