At MSK Doctors, specialists are harnessing the power of deep learning to revolutionise the approach to knee health, particularly in manageing conditions like osteoarthritis. Knee MRI Meets Advanced AI Magnetic Resonance Imageing (MRI) has been a cornerstonnee in diagnosing knee issues, offering detailed views of bones, cartilages, ligaments, and other soft tissues. MSK Doctors integrates deep learning with MRI analysis, employing sophisticated algorithms to decipher these images with exceptional precision. This combination allows for the early detection and prediction of osteoarthritis progression, often identifying subtle changes in the knee before they become symptomatic. Automated Segmentation: A Breakthrough in Diagnosis One of the most significant...
Understanding Patellar Tendonitis and Its ManagementPatellar tendonitis, or jumper's knee, is an overuse injury marked by inflammation of the tendon connecting the kneecap to the shinbone. Common symptoms include pain, swelling, and tenderness below the kneecap, especially during physical activity. Early intervention with rest, ice, compression, elevation, and specific rehabilitation exercises can promote healing and…Patellar tendonitis, or jumper's knee, is an overuse injury marked by inflammation of the tendon connecting the kneecap to the shinbone. Common symptoms include pain, swelling, and tenderness below the kneecap, especially during physical activity. Early intervention with rest, ice, compression, elevation, and specific rehabilitation exercises can promote healing and prevent complications such as tendon degeneration or rupture. Preventative measures like proper warm-ups, strengthening exercises, and supportive straps are effective. Physical therapy is crucial for recovery, while surgery is rarely needed. Recognizing symptoms early and seeking medical guidance ensures optimal knee function and recovery.
