“…Nevertheless, it can't respond to changes in accessory structures such as articular cartilage. MRI can be adopted to evaluate the joints and the surrounding soft tissue structures, and the bones, articular cartilage, meniscus, ligament, synovial membrane, and joint effusion can be clearly displayed [33,34]. MRI is relatively more valuable in the early diagnosis of osteoarthritis and can reveal changes such as thinning or defects of articular cartilage and meniscus injury.…”

Purpose: this work was to explore the diagnostic value and lesion evaluation value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and X-ray in knee joint degenerative osteoarthropathy. Methods: a total of 92 patients with knee degenerative osteoarthropathy who were admitted to our hospital from March 2021 to September 2022 were included in the study. They were randomly assigned into a control (Ctrl) group (n = 46) and an observation (Obs) group (n = 46) according to the random number table. X-ray films were taken in Ctrl group, and MRI images were taken in Obs group to compare their diagnostic accuracy and evaluation efficiency for arthropathy. Results: in terms of osseous structural lesions, the detection rates of the two methods were not greatly different (P > 0.05). For meniscal cartilage and peripheral soft tissues, the detection rate of MRI was obviously superior to that of X-ray. The diagnostic sensitivity (95.55%) was obviously higher than that of X-ray (86.04%), and the diagnostic coincidence rate (93.47%) was obviously higher than that of X-ray (80.43%). For the first-stage joint lesions, the detection rates of MRI (55% and 11/20) were drastically superior to those of X-ray (35% and 7/20), while for the second-stage joint lesions, the detection rates of MRI (66.66% and 14/21) were higher than those of X-ray (45.4% and 10/21) (P< 0.05). Conclusion: the diagnostic coincidence rate and detection rate of knee degenerative osteoarthropathy with MRI were superior to those with plain X-ray film, which is helpful for the early diagnosis of the disease and worthy of clinical promotion and adoption.
