Summary
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is common and rising. Advanced imaging and image-guided interventions offer new ways to manage OA pain and improve function, with this review detailing established procedures and their evidence.
Area of Science:
- Orthopedics
- Radiology
- Pain Management
Background:
- Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent joint disease, with increasing incidence projected.
- Advances in diagnostic imaging and image-guided interventions are expanding treatment options for knee OA.
Purpose of the Study:
- To review established advanced interventional procedures for knee OA.
- To describe the techniques for safe performance of these procedures.
- To discuss the clinical evidence supporting these interventions.
Main Methods:
- Literature review of established advanced interventional procedures for knee OA.
- Description of procedural techniques.
- Analysis of clinical evidence supporting each intervention.
Main Results:
- Spectrum of established advanced interventional procedures for knee OA identified.
- Techniques for safe procedural execution detailed.
- Clinical evidence supporting reviewed procedures discussed.
Conclusions:
- Advanced interventional procedures, guided by imaging, represent a growing area for managing knee OA pain and function.
- Understanding procedural techniques and supporting evidence is crucial for effective patient care.
