Please help decipher these MRI terms!

I had a MRI done on my knee on the 21st of December. After waiting for the doc to call for several days, I finally tried to call him and left messages for two days. I decided to go get the results myself from the MRI place which I did. I still have not received a phone call from my doc, but I did talk to the nurse yesterday. She tried to explain things to me and with the report in front of me, she left out quite a bit which I asked her about. She didn’t know. She set me up with an appointment to see the doc in late Feb. That’s a long time to wait for answers. Can anyone please decipher what this report suggests?

1 Popliteal cyst visible

2. Subtle osteodema along the articular surface of patella

3. Cortical irregularity and chondral thinning

4. Transcondylar injury is present.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks again
