Understanding MRI Joint Kinematic Study

What is MRI Joint Kinematic Study?

A Magnetic Resonance IImagining (MRI) Joint Kinematic study creates a picture of the joints of the cervical spine (collar bone), shoulder, ankle, knee, lumbar, mandible (jaw), wrist, and its surrounding soft tissues.

This test is prescribed by the doctor to observe movement patterns of the joints, analyze involuntary muscle contractions, and to diagnose neurological abnormalities which lack voluntary coordination.

What is MRI Joint Kinematic Study used for?

To observe movement patterns of the joints (which includes body movement and joint angles)
To diagnose ataxia (neurological abnormalities which lacks voluntary coordination of muscle movements)
To analyze dystonia (involuntary muscle contractions), essential tremor (neurological disease which causes rhythmic shaking of hand, head, arms or legs)
To find out presence of parkinson’s disease (neurodegenerative disease which leads to movement limitations due to loss of dopamine)
