Q1: When should I consider a knee MRI?
A knee MRI is recommended if you have:
Persistent knee pain despite physiotherapy or medication
Swelling, locking, or instability in the knee
Suspected ligament tears (ACL, PCL, MCL, LCL) or meniscus injuries
Pain affecting work, sports, or daily activities
MRI detects soft tissue and internal knee injuries that X-rays, CT, or ultrasound may miss.
Q2: Why choose The Pain Relief Clinic for knee MRI?
Fast: MRI scans completed within 1 working day
Affordable: Under $1,000, insurance and Medisave claimable. Cashless options available to avoid upfront payment

Integrated care: Non-surgical treatments like physiotherapy, guided exercises, and hot therapy available immediately
Q3: How does MRI at The Pain Relief Clinic improve care?
Early MRI ensures accurate diagnosis of ligament, meniscus, or cartilage injuries, preventing unnecessary treatments or surgery. Targeted non-surgical therapy can restore mobility and relieve pain safely.
Q4: Are other scans sufficient for knee issues?
X-rays: Show only bone alignment
CT scans: Limited for soft tissue
Ultrasound: Cannot reliably visualize deep knee structures
MRI is the only option for complete assessment of ligaments, meniscus, cartilage, and surrounding soft tissues.
