Abstract:Objectives: Sonoelastography is a relatively new technique used to evaluate the musculoskeletal system, but shear wave elastography of the knee menisci has not previously been reported. The purpose of this study is to study sonoelastographic features of the knee menisci. Methods: 34 knee joints were studied, in 17 healthy subjects. Shear wave elastography was used to evaluate the anterior horn of the medial meniscus. Normal sonoelastographic values were obtained. Results: The mean shear elastic modulus of th… Show more
