This MRI atlas of the knee is the fruit of interdisciplinary cooperation among radiologists, orthopaedists, and traumatologists. All important diseases and injuries of the knee are covered. Every part of the joint is comprehensively depicted in a series of MR images ranging all the way from the normal status to full-blown disease. Clinical evaluation of the findings is followed in each case by detailed information on diagnostic pitfalls, staging of disease, and consequences for treatment. This special format helps to differentiate clearly between normal and abnormal imaging findings and facilitates the formation of engrams for the major knee structures.
