Pain in right knee, check for meniscal tear and MCL injury MENISCI: No significant abnormality noted. Specifically menisci are intact, no findings to suggest acute tear and both menisci are properly inserted posteriorly.ARTICULAR CARTILAGE AND BONE: Moderate edema is observed throughout the lateral compartment, both within the distal femur and proximal tibia. Cartilage is intact throughout.LIGAMENTS: Abnormal signal within the ACL with small amount of fluid suggesting intrasubstance tear, however fibers are intact throughout. Additionally the MCL demonstrates marked abnormal inflammation and strain involving the proximal insertion with mild adjacent inflammatory changes and minimal fluid. Suspected subacute abnormality, please correlate patient injury.PCL, LCL and retinaculum are otherwise intactEXTENSOR MECHANISM: No significant abnormality noted.ADDITIONAL
