Description

Diagnostic arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used by orthopedic surgeons to visualize, diagnose, and sometimes treat problems inside a joint. It involves inserting a small camera, called an arthroscope, into the joint through a small incision. The arthroscope transmits images of the inside of the joint to a monitor, allowing the surgeon to examine the structures such as cartilage, ligaments, tendons, and synovium.
