Popis: Background: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a noninvasive diagnostic method with no known side effects and a high sensitivity for detecting meniscal lesions as well as lesions of the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments. For a correct and complete diagnosis, MRI results must be interpreted in the context of clinical examination and anamnesis. MRI results can support the surgical indication for arthroscopy, which is a minimally invasive intervention that facilitates the visualization, investigation, diagnosis, and treatment of intra-articular lesions of the knee. The purpose of this study was to assess the correlation between MRI results and the intra-articular lesions detected arthroscopically.
