I'm very satisfied with this medical clinic. I had my first pregnancy screening here. It was affordable and very professional. The radiologist was welcoming, kind, and made the experience great.

A knee X-ray is the essential first-line imaging study for evaluating knee pain, swelling, instability, and suspected fractures. It provides clear visualization of the femur (thighbone), tibia (shinbone), patella (kneecap), and fibula, along with the joint spaces between them. At DCDC in Dubai Healthcare City, our digital knee X-ray delivers high-resolution images that allow precise assessment of bone integrity, joint alignment, and early degenerative changes.

Osteoarthritis is the most common condition diagnosed with knee X-ray. The hallmark findings include narrowing of the joint space (indicating cartilage loss), subchondral sclerosis (bone hardening beneath the cartilage), osteophyte formation (bone spurs at the joint margins), and subchondral cysts. Weight-bearing knee X-rays, taken while you stand, are particularly valuable because they show the true extent of joint space loss under physiological load.

For sports injuries and trauma, knee X-ray is the first step in ruling out fractures of the distal femur, proximal tibia, patella, and fibular head. The Ottawa Knee Rules guide clinical decision-making about when X-ray is needed after knee trauma, helping avoid unnecessary imaging while ensuring fractures are not missed. Tibial plateau fractures, patellar fractures, and avulsion fractures from ligament injuries are clearly visible on standard knee X-ray views.
