Abstract

Objectives: The aim of this study is to analyze the diagnostic value of magnetic resonance images (MRI) in osteoarthritic knees when using arthroscopic ndings as the “gold standard” to compare with. Method: A total of 76 patients were studied because of chronic pain in 1 of their knees. Radiographs were classified according to Kell- gren-Lawrence scale. Magnetic resonance images were classified according to Vallotton, and arthroscopic ndings according to Outer- bridge criteria. Results: Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy were, respectively 69,7%, 85,8%, 80,9%, 79,7%, and 82,6% for MRI. Conclusion: Magnetic resonance images presented higher specificity, positive and negative predictive values, and accuracy than weight-bearing radiographs for knee osteoarthritis (according to other research)
