A member asked:
Can the tibia be seen on a knee mri?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: The proximal tibia forms the plateau component of the knee that articulates with the femur. So the proximal tibia is seen on knee mri but not the mid or distal portions usually only down to approximately the tibial tubercle.
