An anatomical update on the morphologic variations of S1 and S2
(2010)
Although percutaneous fixation with iliosacral screws has been shown to be a safe and reproducible method for sacroiliac dislocation and sacral fractures, it is a technically demanding technique, and one of its contraindications ...
Diagnostic accuracy of a new clinical test (The Thessaly test) for early detection of meniscal tears
(2005)
Background: Clinical tests used for the detection of meniscal tears in the knee do not present acceptable diagnostic sensitivity and specificity values. Diagnostic accuracy is improved by arthroscopic evaluation or magnetic ...
Fast sequences MR imaging at the investigation of painful skeletal sites in patients with hip osteonecrosis
(2015)
Background: Multiple osteonecrotic foci can be clinically silent when located in metaphyses and becomes painful when it affects juxta-articular areas. The purpose of this study was to assess the value of fast MR imaging ...
The role of MR imaging in staging femoral head osteonecrosis
(2007)
Reliability, accuracy and prognostic value of any classification system are important in evaluation and treatment of femoral head osteonecrosis. The purpose of the present study was to correlate the plain radiographs with ...
Femoral head osteonecrosis: Volumetric MRI assessment and outcome
(2007)
Effective treatment of femoral head osteonecrosis (FHON) requires early diagnosis and accurate assessment of the disease severity. The ability to predict in the early stages the risk of collapse is important for selecting ...
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head: Etiology, imaging and treatment
(2007)
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head is a disabling clinical entity affecting young adults that usually leads to destruction of the hip joint. A high index of suspicion is necessary for the diagnosis due to the insidious onset ...
MR imaging findings in transient osteoporosis of the hip
(2004)
Purpose: The authors sought to describe the magnetic resonance (MR) imaging findings including perfusion imaging, in association with the course of acute bone marrow oedema syndrome (aBMEs), in a group of patients with ...
Evaluation of the Bone Bridge Between the Bone Tunnels After Anatomic Double-Bundle Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction A Multidetector Computed Tomography Study
(2010)
Background: Double-bundle anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is a technically demanding procedure; it requires drilling 2 tibial and 2 femoral tunnels. Tunnel communication, whether intraoperative or postoperative, ...
Patellar tendon length after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: a comparative magnetic resonance imaging study between patellar and hamstring tendon autografts
(2007)
Patellar tendon shortening after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction may be associated with anterior knee pain or patellofemoral arthritis. The present study was designed to compare postoperative changes in patellar ...
