The chapter emphasizes how these imaging features support clinical evaluation and management of knee conditions.
Chapter- 3 MRI Findings in Various Shoulder Pathologies
: 00:10 Hour
Focusing on shoulder imaging, this chapter explains characteristic MRI appearances of common shoulder disorders. It covers rotator cuff injuries, labral tears, bursitis, and degenerative changes, with an emphasis on recognizing key signs and correlating them with clinical presentations.
Chapter-4 Normal and Abnormal MRI Findings of the Lumbar Spine
: 00:11 Hour
This chapter explores both normal and pathological MRI appearances of the lumbar spine. It covers typical anatomical structures as seen on MRI, followed by common abnormalities such as disc bulges, herniations, degenerative changes, and spinal canal narrowing. The discussion helps differentiate age-related changes from clinically significant findings, aiding in accurate interpretation and appropriate clinical decision-making.
