The diagnostic performance of low field (0.1 T) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was studied prospectively and double-blindly among 33 patients with acute knee injuries. The subsequent arthroscopy was the golden standard. For lesions of the medial meniscus low field MR had a sensitivity of 88% and a specificity of 80%; for lesions of the lateral meniscus the sensitivity was 25% and the specificity 97%. For anterior cruciate ligament tears, low field MRI had a sensitivity of 83% and a specificity of 85%. The specificity for posterior cruciate ligament tears was 97%. The performance of low field MRI equalled that reported earlier for high field MRI, the only exception being the sensitivity for lateral meniscus lesions.
