To provide a convenient tool for the early detection of injuries, researchers have developed a portable MRI device for diagnosing cartilage damage in the wrist. Using this device, the researchers imaged the wrists of tennis players at a tennis school. Several athletes were found to have cartilage damage without any other symptoms of an injury. Thus, this device provides a convenient early screening tool to help prevent further injury or damage.
