Advantages of Cone Beam Computed Tomography for Evaluation of Subchondral Insufficiency Fractures of the Knee Compared to MRI

CurveBeam AI

Key Points: Cone Beam CT (CBCT) is superior in assessing bony structures compared to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) In this study, there was a 40% rate of discrepancy when grading knee subchondral insufficiency fractures on CBCT vs. MRI, with MRI frequently underestimating damage of the subchondral bone plate while overestimating lesion size.
