  • Title: Musculoskeletal applications of magnetic resonance imaging. Council on Scientific Affairs.
    Journal: JAMA; 1989 Nov 03; 262(17):2420-7. PubMed ID: 2677430.
    Abstract:
    Magnetic resonance imaging provides superior contrast, resolution, and multiplanar imaging capability, allowing excellent definition of soft-tissue and bone marrow abnormalities. For these reasons, magnetic resonance imaging has become a major diagnostic imaging method for the evaluation of many musculoskeletal disorders. The applications of magnetic resonance imaging for musculoskeletal diagnosis are summarized and examples of common clinical situations are given. General guidelines are suggested for the musculoskeletal applications of magnetic resonance imaging.
