Medial Knee Coronal View

Image Library

The coronal view of the medial knee is mostly used to visualize the medial collateral ligament (MCL). You can visualize it's attachments to the femur and tibia, and visualize the length of the ligament.

Use the ultrasound images to familiarize yourself with the appearance of the relevant structures on ultrasound. 

 

Compare ultrasound images to corresponding CT images to orient yourself to the anatomy and become familiar with the common scanning planes for ultrasonography.   

MRI and Ultrasound Images

Below you will find coronal slices of a knee MRI along side a corresponding coronal ultrasound image. Scroll through the different images to familiarize yourself with how the different anatomic structures appear on both imaging modalities, and their anatomic relationships with one another. 

The video below demonstrates scrolling through the above MRI images, and you can start and stop them at your own pace.
