Imaging of musculoskeletal trauma

Many significant papers in the current literature on musculoskeletal trauma deal with new advances in MR imaging. The increasing role of MR imaging in the evaluation of traumatic lesions of the knee explains the number of papers dealing with the differentiation of true traumatic lesions from normal variants or clinically insignificant changes. Other contributions on musculoskeletal trauma deal with more conventional imaging techniques, such as arthrography, plain films, and even complex tomography.
