Overview
What is Diagnostic Arthroscopy?
Diagnostic arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure used to examine the inside of a joint using a small camera called an arthroscope. It helps in accurately diagnosing joint conditions when clinical examination and imaging tests like X-rays or MRI are inconclusive.
The procedure allows direct visualization of joint structures such as cartilage, ligaments, tendons, and synovial lining. It is commonly performed in joints like the knee, shoulder, ankle, elbow, and wrist.
Dr. Hemendra Agrawal uses advanced arthroscopic techniques to precisely identify joint problems such as cartilage damage, ligament injuries, inflammation, or loose bodies.
In many cases, diagnostic arthroscopy can also be combined with therapeutic procedures, allowing both diagnosis and treatment in the same sitting, reducing the need for multiple surgeries.
