    Notes: Abstract Our purpose was to assess the role of MRI in evaluating themusculoskeletal system in athletes with chronic pain laterally in the groin of unknown etiology. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the pubic ring was performed in 11 young athletes (soc cer players) with long-standing groin n pain. MR findings were: compared with plain films and isotope examination (bone scan Tc 99M). Abnormal MRI findings included a broadend andirregular symphysis witha characteristics pattern of low signal intensity on T1W and high signal intensity on T2W images localized in the superior pubic ramus at a distance from the symphasis. Positive findings wer also observed on plain films and on nuclear medicine studies. However, the imaging findings in the superior pubic ramus of the symphysis was located considerably more laterally on MRI. MRI is :a valuable method for evaluating discrete and ambiguous pelvic pain in athletes. particularly for identifying concomitant changes in the superior ramus, which may give rise to long-standing localized laterally in the groin.

    Notes: Abstract. The aims of the present study were to assess if MRI gives the same diagnostic information as herniography concerning the presence of hernias and reveals other causes of groin pain. The prospective study enrolled 20 patients referred for herniography, 6 women and 14 men, mean age 48 years. After herniography the patients underwent MRI using T1-weighted, fat-suppressed inversion recovery (STIR), and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreaticography (MRCP) pulse sequences. No contrast medium was administered at MRI. Herniography revealed 11 hernias and MRI depicted 8 of these. Magnetic resonance imaging depicted well the anatomy in the groins. In 3 patients where hernias were not revealed, MRI revealed inflammatory changes in the symphysis region as a possible cause of groin pain. The primary diagnostic tool for diagnosing hernias is herniography. If the herniogram is normal, MRI may reveal other causes of groin pain and may also better visualize related structures in the groin.
