[Tear_05] Inferior Surface Longitudinal Meniscal Tear -03

Longitudinal tears are diagnosed on MRI by the presence of a vertical line of increased signal intensity contacting the superior, inferior, or both surfaces of the meniscus.

The longitudinal tear extends to the inferior meniscal surface and courses parallel to the long axis of the meniscus on corresponding PD FSE axial image.
[Tear_04] case demonstrates vertically oriented increased signal intensity contacting both articular surfaces, indicative of complete longitudinal-vertical tear, while [Tear_05] case shows inferior surface longitudinal tear.
