They were too loose, with the result that the knee hyperextended too much and put too much stress on the IT band, giving me tendinitis at the IT band attachment at Gerdy's tubercle.

Also, I have had MRIs, CTs, and even a PET scan, and they really are not that bad. For the MRI you are have intercom contact with the techs.
