Abstract
We present the results of a prospective study comparing the accuracy of magnetic resonance
imaging with arthroscopy in the assessment of knee complaints. Using a low field strength
magnet, MRI was able to achieve a high diagnostic accuracy within the setting of a
district general hospital.
