[CORRELATION BETWEEN MRI AND ARTHROSCOPIC FINDINGS IN THE DIAGNOSIS OF KNEE PATHOLOGY IN YOUNG AND ADULT PATIENTS].

Background: MRI is increasingly used as a diagnostic tool for sports injuries involving the knees before referral to arthroscopy.

Objectives: Since degenerative changes increase with age, we aimed to evaluate whether age affects the accuracy of MRI.

Methods: This is a retrospective study of patients with knee injury whose evaluation included both MRI and arthroscopy.
