Improving visualization of the articular cartilage of the knee with magnetic resonance imaging under axial traction: a comparative study of different traction weights
ConclusionTraction MRI examination may be useful in evaluating articular cartilage lesions at the medial tibiofemoral joint. A traction weight of 5 kg may be sufficient with minimum pain and discomfort.
