MR imaging of knee anterior cruciate ligament and associated injuries in skiers

C P Ho et al. Magn Reson Imaging Clin N Am. 1999 Feb.

Abstract

Tears of the ACL have become widespread in the skiing population. Understanding of the mechanisms and patterns of associated injury of such ACL tears has benefited from and contributed greatly to clinical and imaging evaluation and management. MR imaging of the injured knee has become the gold standard comprehensive imaging examination for evaluating the ACL tear and associated soft-tissue and osseous injuries and assisting the treating physician in planning management, as the isolated ACL tear has proven to be the exception rather than the rule in skiing knee injuries.
