  • Title: Nuclear magnetic resonance imaging of the knee: examples of normal anatomy and pathology.
    Author: Kean DM, Worthington BS, Preston BJ, Roebuck EJ, McKim-Thomas H, Hawkes RC, Holland GN, Moore WS.
    Journal: Br J Radiol; 1983 Jun; 56(666):355-64. PubMed ID: 6573932.
    Abstract:
    Nuclear magnetic resonance images of the knee were obtained from three normal volunteers and from two patients. The pathology included an osteosarcoma of the distal femur and a fracture of the tibia. Steady State Free Precession (SSFP) techniques were used with a 0.15 Tesla resistive type magnet. Normal anatomy was well displayed and the size of the osteosarcoma was accurately predicted. Using SSFP techniques, the blood in the knee joint was not visualised, but the underlying tibial fracture was clearly outlined.
