Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
Your knee MRI report is explained below.
1. partial ACL thickness tear
This is due to injury and the anterior cruciate ligament (binding bones at knee joint) has got torn partially.
2. cyst behind Posterior CL
There might be a small benign cyst behind posterior cruciate ligament. This is not a concern.
3. all other ligaments, meniscis intact
This is a normal finding.
4. Red Bone Marrow conversion or possible underlying systemic problem
Bone marrow activity is higher than normal. A complete blood hemogram can be done.
