Relative and absolute reliability of medial knee joint space width measurement using ultrasound imaging during valgus stress testing.

A study published in PLoS One evaluated how reliably ultrasound imaging can measure medial knee joint space width during valgus stress testing. Researchers assessed both relative and absolute reliability metrics, providing data relevant to clinicians who use diagnostic ultrasound to evaluate medial knee laxity and joint integrity. These findings may help physical therapists determine the consistency of ultrasound-based knee assessments in clinical and research settings.
