Abstract
Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of the knee was performed in 10 patients with hemophilia. The periarticular and subchondral abnormalities were classified according to the signal intensity from these regions on T1- and T2-weighted pulse sequences. Periarticular abnormalities were detected in 50% of the hemophiliac joints, and fibrous changes were noted in 57% of all the areas of subchondral abnormality. Magnetic resonance imaging identifies periarticular and subchondral abnormalities in patients with hemophilia and may help in monitoring the progress of the disease process.Entities:
