Wha is arthroscopic diagnosis??


Question: this question is about bones
Answers: Examination of the interior of a joint, such as the knee, using a type of endoscope that is inserted into the joint through a small incision.
your question isn't quite right, but an arthroscopy is a method of minimally invasive surgery in which the surgeon can scope out inside the bone or usually a joint by means of a digital camera lens attached to a long narrow tube. they do that to see exactly what the problem is. it's usually a procedure done before before they determine if and where to operate. it's frequently used on all joints of the legs and arms, like for football knee injuries ouch.

So the diagnosis is a clinical assessment by the doctor of what is wrong with the patient based upon the visual preview of the problem area.

it doesn't really hurt, but i hope you never need one
