[Standardized ultrasound study of the knee joint].
Explantation of the Standard sonographic views with corresponding MRI scans: The sonographic examination of the knee joint can supply additional information in many pathological conditions. In the standardised examination, ventral, lateral and dorsal sectional planes are obtained. In addition, special examinations for the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments and the menisci can be performed. The important anatomic structures as visualised via ultrasound are compared with the corresponding MRI images. Ultrasound offers a safe, inexpensive way for additional imaging of the injured knee.
