OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the use of MR imaging in the characterization of the Perthes lesion by correlating MR findings with findings at arthroscopy. CONCLUSION: The use of a combination of axial and abduction-external rotation position sequences on MR images can be helpful in the diagnosis of a Perthes lesion. A fluid-filled joint with capsular distension, caused by either a large amount of effusion or MR arthrography, was found to be helpful in outlining Perthes lesions. Adding the abduction-external rotation position to the protocol in patients in whom Perthes lesion is suspected will increase diagnostic accuracy and may reveal a Perthes lesion not visible on axial images, as was the case in 50% of the patients in our series.
