This DVD presents in 75 minutes a great lesson about the knee. It is possible to follow the different chapters separately. The first part is a very practical clinical presentation of the normal anatomy and physiology of the knee. The third part is an excellent demonstration of semiology. Inspection, palpation, and specific maneuvers are emphasized and well demonstrated. Constant anatomical and functional explanations of the clinical signs make the presentation of the tests very rich. The chapter text for each test or examination procedure and technique makes access to the information easy, precise and quick. This DVD is not only a reference for those who wish to learn how to examine a knee well, but also a very useful tool for experienced medical doctors in sports medicine, surgery, and rehabilitation. --Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy
