RADIATION DIAGNOSTICS OF THE PATHOLOGY OF PATELLOFEMORAL JOINT
https://doi.org/10.24835/1607-0763-2018-4-65-76
Abstract
The problem of diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the patellofemoral joint (PFJ) remains relevant currently, since joint damage affects mainly young employable patients. The review analyzes the data of foreign and domestic literature on methods of the visualization of pathological conditions of patellofemoral articulation. Analysis of the literature has shown that now there is no single algorithm for detecting the pathology of PFJ by radiological methods, especially on early stages, when the effectiveness of treatment is the highest.
