Can you help me translate this portion of my MRI report on my knee?
I have been battling knee issues for a couple of years now, I have undergone PT, steroid injections, and bracing. All have helped temporarily, but the pain always seems to return. I recently had a MRI which stated the following:
"Anterior compartment: Anteriorly the patient has grade 3 chondrosis
involving the median ridge of the patella jetting is worse since
October. There is also some trochlear chondrosis involving the lateral
facet of the trochlea with subchondral marrow edema again worse
compared to prior."
Is this anything to be concerned about? WHat might it mean for my future treatment? Thanks in advance for your help.
