An MRI of the lower extremity joint is an imaging test that uses magnetic waves to create detailed pictures of the structures in your left hip, knee, ankle, or foot, depending on which joint your doctor wants to examine. Your doctor might order this test to help diagnose problems like injuries, arthritis, tears, or other conditions affecting the bones, cartilage, ligaments, or soft tissues in that joint. During the procedure, you'll lie still inside an MRI machine for about 30-45 minutes while it takes pictures; the machine is noisy but painless, and you'll be able to communicate with the technician throughout the scan.
