Which specialist to consult for unclear knee MRI results at 28F?

Hello, I (28F) did a knee MRI a couple of months ago. These were the results: Coupes axiales, coronales et sagittales en PD FAT SAT. Coupes coronale T1. Résultat : On n'observe pas d'épanchement synovial significatif. Absence de kyste poplité. Les ligaments croisés et collatéraux sont préservés. Discret hypersignal horizontal flou observé sur la séquence sagittale PD FAT SAT le long de la surface inférieure du secteur postéromédian du ménisque interne, non formellement visible sur la séquence coronale, possiblement artéfactuelle. Pas de lésion cartilagineuse, intra-osseuse ou tendineuse significative démontrée. Hypersignal focal de la périphérie du condyle fémoral interne le long de. De pénétration vasculaire, aspécifique. My family doctor mentioned she did not understand the result because it lacked some wording and prescribed kine. Before doing it, I would like to make sure it is nothing more serious. With which specialty should I check with, and will they be able to see the exam results even if they are not my family doctor? Thanks in advance!

  • Bonjour, il manque effectivement une partie du protocole. Quoi qu’il en soit, il semble que vous ayez soit surmené l’intérieur du genou, soit subi un choc aigu (une “contusion”). Ce n’est pas nécessairement grave et cela peut se résoudre spontanément. À condition toutefois d’épargner le genou dans les jours à venir et de ne le solliciter qu’en respectant les limites de la douleur.

  • Hi, nothing serious. Consult with an orthopedic surgeon to be examined and discuss treatment options.
