Radiographic examination of the large tendons of the knee and ankle joints

  • Published:
Archives of orthopaedic and traumatic surgery Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

The authors present some interesting cases to illustrate the diagnostic potential of soft tissue radiography on the knee and ankle joints. Radiographs using the special soft tissue technique provide significant diagnostic assistance to estimate the morphologic alterations and give an objective basis for determining the disability of the patient.
