Stubbs Imperial College London Surgical Society Junior Anatomy Series Interpreting Radiology of the Knee X-rays • Will tell you about bones and their integrity • Looking at bone outlines will allow you to pick up fractures. If it’s discontinuous, it’s a fracture. • Will allow you to see joint spaces, which are reduced in osteoarthritis MRIs • Will allow you to see soft tissues • Are typically sagittal, but may be coronal sections • Normal menisci will appear black • Bone appears grey In general • Locating the fibula will allow you to deduce which knee is being imaged • In a Coronal Section, the lateral side of the tibia is thinner • The ACL and PCL are named according to their attachment to the tibia bone rather than the femur Chelsea A. Stubbs Mohamad Abou-Eid (CPA Lead) Imperial College London Surgical Society Junior Anatomy Series Common Clinical Presentations Osteoarthritis • Reduced Range of Motion • Pain worse on movement, better on rest • History of Trauma • Middle to old age • X-ray shows LOSS (loss of joint space, osteophytes, subchondral sclerosis, subchondral cysts) • Possible muscle atrophy due to antalgic gait • In flare up, may detect warm temperature Septic arthritis • Warm temperature • Effusion • Tenderness • Reduced Range of Motion Rheumatoid arthritis • Female • Pain better with movement • May have other features such as ulnar deviation of hands • History of autoimmune disease Chelsea A.
