MRI images of the joints
MRI clearly shows the soft tissue structures in any joint, for example, tendons, cartilage, bone, synovial fluid and surrounding muscle and damage to any of these structures can be demonstrated.
Shoulders, wrists, hips, knees and ankles are often imaged using MRI. If you're having a hip or shoulder scan you'll normally be asked to lie fairly flat. Wrist and elbow scan positions vary - you may be asked to lie face downwards or on your side.
