About this trial

This is an interventional diagnostic trial for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Tear focused on measuring dynamic knee laxity measurement, laxi-MRI, partial anterior cruciate ligament tear

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 60 Years (Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • knee injury requiring MRI examination
  • accepting to participate
  • covered by a health care insurance system

Exclusion Criteria:

  • MRI contraindication
  • pregnancy
  • patient included in another study potentially affecting the results
  • protected patients

Sites / Locations

  • Hospices Civils de Lyon - Hôpital Edouard Herriot Pavillon B Radiologie

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

laxIRM

Arm Description

Patients will have dynamic knee laxity measurement coupled to MRI for the diagnosis of ACL tear

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Anterior tibial translation (ATT) measurement
Time Frame : 1 year after the baseline MRI-scan a follow-up MRI is performed if the patient did not had surgery. ATT is calculated as the difference between the distance from the tangent to the condyle to the tangent to the posterior aspect of the tibial plateau in the stress position and in resting conditions. ATT is measured for the medial and the lateral compartment respectively and the final ATT is the average of medial and lateral ATT.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Degree of laxity
1 year after the baseline MRI-scan a follow-up MRI is performed if the patient did not had surgery. Laxity of the torn ligament is defined using a visual scale with the following grading : 0 : No laxity. Grade 1: moderate laxity. Grade 2: severe laxity.
Femorotibial rotation (FTR) value
1 year after the baseline MRI-scan a follow-up MRI is performed if the patient did not had surgery. FTR= arc tan ((ATT lateral-ATT medial)/(slice thickness*number of sagittal slices))*180/π

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear is frequent, but the diagnosis of partial tears is difficult. Standard MRI may be used but is of limited diagnostic value. The present study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic interest of dynamic knee laxity measurement coupled to MRI for the diagnosis of ACL tear.
