Used to image soft tissue structures such as interior of complex joints?

If you are asking what is used for imaging of soft tissues in joints; an MRI (MRT, KST, ...) At this point, MRI (preferably 3T MRI) is the best. Ultrasounds can also be used (for example for rotator cuff evaluation), or sometimes an arthro-CT (normal CT is not that good). A diagnostic arthroscopy is a possiblity, but I suppose that no longer falls under "imaging". Plain x-rays will not show soft tissues (well, they will, but very vague).

What is the difference between adipose tissue and cartilage?
Adipose tissue, more commonly known as fat, stores caloric energy which can be used to supplement dietary calories if needed, in lean times. Cartilage is a type of connective tissue which helps to construct joints and some other structures in the body.
What has the most complex tissues?
The most complex tissue in the body is the musle.
Flexible connective tissue at joints?
cartilage
What are bones joints and connective tissue?
Bones form the frame of the body. They are connected at various types of joints and are held together by connective tissue.
Are the bones joined at the joints?
No, the ligament -a tough band of tissue- holds bones together at joints.
Does muscle tissue stabilize joints?
no they just allow movement in joints with out damaging the bones.
