Association of Knee Effusion Detected by Physical Examination With Bone Marrow Lesions: Cross‐Sectional and Longitudinal Analyses of a Population‐Based Cohort

Abstract

BMLs on MRI can be predicted from PE effusion cross-sectionally with high PPV of 79.9%. Assessment for knee effusion on physical examination is useful for determining potential candidates with BML before costly MRI screening for recruitment into clinical trials.
