Menicscal Tear: The MRI reading is based somewhat on the subjective review by the radiologist. The knee needs to be assessed by both the compaints of the patient and the exam of the knee. The treatment will be based on the overall picture of the patient and the exam as well as using the MRI for data. If the patient has no pain and a normal exam then nothing needs to be done.
