The tennis elbow brace can today. I was skeptical when I took it out of the packaging, but I've been wearing it for a couple of hours and my arm actually feels a little better.

IMPRESSION
COMPARISON: None.
TECHNIQUE: Routine MRI of the left knee was performed without contrast.
FINDINGS:
MEDIAL COMPARTMENT: Focal 2.0 x 0.5 cm full-thickness cartilage defect along the posterior weightbearing surface of the medial femoral condyle. No underlying subchondral edema. The medial meniscus is normal without evidence of tear.
LATERAL COMPARTMENT: Small zone of high-grade and full thickness cartilage fissuring along the posterior aspect of the tibial plateau without underlying subchondral edema. The lateral meniscus is normal without evidence of tear.
PATELLOFEMORAL JOINT: Full-thickness cartilage fissure at the patellar apex with trace underlying subchondral edema. Small joint effusion and popliteal cyst. No osteocartilaginous bodies are identified.
LIGAMENTS AND TENDONS: The anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments, medial collateral ligament, iliotibial band, fibular collateral ligament and biceps femoris tendons are intact. The popliteus muscle and tendons are normal. There is no evidence of injury to the posterolateral corner supporting structures.
EXTENSOR MECHANISM: The quadriceps and patellar tendons are normal. The medial retinaculum, medial patellofemoral ligament, and lateral retinaculum are normal.
MARROW AND SOFT TISSUES: There is no abnormal signal or evidence of soft tissue mass.
IMPRESSION:
1. 2.0 x 0.5 cm area of full-thickness cartilage loss along the posterior weightbearing surface of the medial femoral condyle.
2. Mild chondromalacia in the lateral and patellofemoral compartment.
3. Small joint effusion and popliteal cyst.
4. Intact ligaments and menisci.
