Location of medial collateral ligament tears: introduction to a magnetic resonance imaging-based classification

Despite established tear grade classifications, there is currently no radiological classification for sMCL tear locations. This study aims to establish a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) tear location classification system for sMCL tears, to enhance understanding and guide treatment decisions by cat...

Description
Summary:Despite established tear grade classifications, there is currently no radiological classification for sMCL tear locations. This study aims to establish a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) tear location classification system for sMCL tears, to enhance understanding and guide treatment decisions by categorizing tear types. A retrospective search in a single institution's MRI database identified patients with acute, Grade III sMCL tears (
