title: The Knee.
abstract: Sports injuries at the knee are very common, not only in contact sports such as football but also in sports with jumping and pivoting. In addition, overuse injuries can affect the tendons, ligaments, and bone with degeneration, friction, and stress response. Radiologists and sports medicine professionals should be familiar with the range of injury occurring at the knee and patterns of injury that can be used to predict other more subtle pathology. These topics and others will be discussed.
