Table 1 Summarized the diagnosis of complete ACL tear by each diagnostic approach. Approach A indicates standard sagittal images only; approach B, orthogonal sagittal and additional oblique sagittal images; approach C, orthogonal sagittal and oblique coronal images; and approach D, orthogonal sagittal, oblique sagittal, and oblique coronal images (p < 0.05)

From: Concurrent use of oblique sagittal and oblique coronal MRI: does it enhance the specificity and the accuracy of diagnosing complete and partial ACL tears?
