2-Dimensional and 3-Dimensional MR Imaging-Aid to Knee Preservation Surgery: Focus on Meniscus and Articular Cartilage.With an increasing life expectancy of global human population, there is a growing demand for preservation of native articular meniscus and cartilage to delay joint arthroplasties, especially in younger and active patients.  This article reviews the current literature and authors' experience with imaging concepts and high-resolution MR imaging techniques as they relate to management and planning for such restorative procedures.

2-Dimensional and 3-Dimensional MR Imaging-Aid to Knee Preservation Surgery: Focus on Meniscus and Articular Cartilage.With an increasing life expectancy of global human population, there is a growing demand for preservation of native articular meniscus and cartilage to delay joint arthroplasties, especially in younger and active patients.  The knee preservation surgery is aided by timely detection of such injuries and high-resolution illustration and characterization of the pathology using two-dimensional and three-dimensional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), made possible due to better MR scanner technology and related software improvements.  This article reviews the current literature and authors' experience with imaging concepts and high-resolution MR imaging techniques as they relate to management and planning for such restorative procedures.
