Abstract:
42 patients with symptoms suggestive of meniscus abnormalities were examined by CT immediately before undergoing arthroscopy. The appearances of normal menisci, various types of rupture, primary degeneration and congenital and acquired abnormalities are described. Using arthroscopy for reference, CT had an accuracy of 83%. The place of CT in relation to other non-invasive forms of tomography is discussed.
