Sometimes, if my daily agenda allows to spread my curiosity (time is never enough!), I make a comparison between 0.3 and 1.5 Tesla Mri imaging studying the same patient.
These are the pictures of a sprained medial collateral ligament of a professional football player, quite similar to what is shown in my recent post medial collateral ligament tear.

I always complete my study with a dynamic ultrasound exam; in this patient the presence of a calcification is noted, not visible on Mri scans.

Comparison between Axial and Coronal Mri scans of the same patient.

Sagittal Pd Tse Fs (1.5 tesla) and Fast Stir (0.3 Tesla).
Hi. Which one is better on knee mri? 0.3 or 1.5 Tesla?
Hi, thanks for your question. In my experience, I didn’t find a significant difference between the two kinds of exams.
