A magnetic-resonance scan of the knee joint that images the cartilage, menisci, cruciate and collateral ligaments, tendons and bone surfaces in detail without radiation. It is one of the most common sports and orthopaedic studies, often requested after injury or for ongoing knee pain, swelling or instability. At OMEGA the scan is performed on a 1.5 Tesla system, is non-contrast at the standard price, and typically takes 20 to 30 minutes. A specialist radiologist reviews the images and supplies a written report.
