What is a Knee MRI Scan?

An MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) scan is a safe, painless, and non-invasive procedure that uses powerful magnetic fields and radio waves to create high-quality, cross-sectional images inside your body. It is a powerful diagnostic tool that does not use potentially harmful radiation.

A knee MRI scan provides an incredibly detailed view of the complex structures within and around the knee joint. This includes:

• The bones (femur, tibia, and patella)
• The joint capsule and cartilage
• The meniscus
• Ligaments (ACL, PCL, MCL, LCL) and tendons
• Muscles and other soft tissues

 

When Should I Consider a Knee MRI Scan?

You should consider a private knee MRI scan if you have been experiencing problems that have lasted for more than a few weeks. Symptoms that might indicate the need for a scan include:

• Persistent or recurring joint pain
• Weakness or instability in the knee
• Swelling around the joint
• Difficulty walking or bearing weight
• “Popping” or “crunching” sounds in the knee

 

What Can a Knee MRI Scan Detect?

Your knee pain may be the result of a sports injury, a fall, or a degenerative condition. The detailed images from your scan will allow our consultant radiologists to detect a wide range of issues, including:

• Tendon and ligament tears (e.g., ACL or meniscus tear)
• Bone fractures or bruises
• Osteoarthritis and other degenerative diseases
• Infections or tumours
• Fluid build-up in the joint
• Damage to cartilage or other soft tissues

The results of your scan will provide your physician with the crucial information needed to make an informed diagnosis and recommend the most appropriate treatment, whether that’s physiotherapy, medication, or surgery.
