Brief Summary
clinical examination alone is usually insufficient in assessment of knee meniscus and a more reliable diagnosis can be achieved by using the knee ultrasound , magnetic resonance imaging. magnetic resonance imaging is considered the most noninvasive diagnostic method of detecting lesions of the intra-articular reliable knee structures. However, there are recent reports concluding that ultrasound is a valid technique for diagnosing meniscal lesions, even though it is not part of the standard protocol for evaluating injuries to the intra-articular knee structures.

Eligibility Criteria
Study willbe on cases of meniscal lesion degenerative on different pathologieslike osteoarthritis, rumatoid arthritis and trumatic cases due to meniscal injury these cases willbe diagnsed by ultrasound and compared by magnetic resonance imaging results to prove role of muskloskeletal ultrasound in diagnosis of meniscal lesions
