This webinar, presented by Prof. Jon Jacobson, provides an overview of knee ultrasound with a focus on sonographic anatomy and standardized scanning protocols. The session is designed to support systematic evaluation of the knee joint using musculoskeletal ultrasound in clinical practice.
The presentation reviews key anatomical structures of the knee as visualized on ultrasound, including tendons, ligaments, muscles, bursae, and joint recesses. Emphasis is placed on understanding normal sonographic appearance as a foundation for accurate assessment. Anatomical landmarks are discussed to support orientation and consistent image acquisition.
The session outlines a structured knee ultrasound scanning protocol, demonstrating a step-by-step approach to examining anterior, medial, lateral, and posterior aspects of the knee. Probe positioning, patient positioning, and scanning planes are addressed to support comprehensive evaluation of the joint.
Dynamic ultrasound assessment is also discussed, illustrating how movement and real-time imaging can assist in evaluating selected knee structures during examination. Practical considerations related to scanning technique and examiner experience are highlighted throughout the presentation.
Overall, the webinar presents knee ultrasound as a valuable tool for musculoskeletal assessment, emphasizing the importance of standardized scanning protocols and detailed knowledge of sonographic anatomy to support accurate and reproducible evaluation of the knee joint.
