Core Tip	Three-dimensional reconstruction from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an expanding field with potentially great clinical utility, but must be applied with caution when segmenting knee meniscal tears. Tear presence or absence, and the complex configuration of bucket handle tears were accurately distinguishable. The remaining tear configurations could not be correctly identified. Advances in MRI sequencing and reconstruction software need to be made before the remaining meniscal tear configurations will be identifiable.
