Abstract :
Background: MRI is suggested for the patients who have complained of painful knee after trauma or inflammation or due to infection. In the present study the post traumatic patients with painful knee were included. After clinical examinations the patients were referred to Radiology Department for diagnosis .MRI was performed on these patients.
Methodology: The study was conducted in the Radiology department of Lahore General Hospital from the period of January 2020 to October 2020.Total 100 patients were included in the study with painful knee who were referred for MRI to diagnose their problem accurately.
Results: Female participants were 30 and the male participants were 70. 38.38± 14.46 years was the mean age and SD of the participants. The patients were post traumatic. The most common issue identified was injury to ACL (anterior cruciate ligament).It is abnormality in soft tissues. Complete tears were not common. Partial tears were found in most cases. Tibial attachment was common as compared to the femoral attachment. Injury to medial collateral ligament and posterior horn of medical meniscus was found common.
Conclusion: MRI is an accurate non invasive diagnostic option for the patients of painful knee. It is helpful in diagnosis of nature and extent of soft tissues and bone abnormality.
