Learn how to interpret an MRI of a knee for iliotibial band friction syndrome, commonly know as runner's knee. This is a painful condition that occurs in athletes, frequently after increasing their training intensity. It is a very nasty pain at the lateral aspect of the knee. I had it myself many many years ago.

This video is aimed for healthcare professionals, mainly radiologists that want to improve their MSK skills. If you are a patient, you might find it interesting and helpful as well. Just saying :).

I thought Runners knee is a form of maltracking of the patella . Can you elaborate on the relations between the IT Band and the Patella ? and what are the symptoms?

I have patellar knee pain for 8 months now, my quads are completely gone, Mri says I have Chondromalacia grade 3, tried to do exercises but it’s too painful, yet my doctor here in UK says Chondromalacia doesn’t mean anything and treatment offered is just cortisone injection.

Does the IT band cause noise like cracking and popping as in crepitus?

Hello doctor . I know your content is to teach and Im sorry for asking a favor, but can you please read my right knee MRI scan?ill send the image in your email if you agree. MRI Reading is subchondral bone marrow edema maybe related to early degenerative changes.OPD doctoelr its probably early onset osteoarthritis. But Im only 30 yrs old and I just needed a 2nd opinion with my scan...I have right knee pain and swelling for 3 weeks now, and left knee started to swell and pain 3 days back. No history of injury but history of overuse due to workload. I only have right knee scan because at that time, only the right knee has symtoms, and its done 5days from experincing right knee pain . Ortho have seen me and reffered me to rheumatologist since theres no injury from MRI. Rheumatologist is telling its probably chondromalacia patellae or runners knee since all my labs are normal.sorry for asking and i hope youll respond. Thank you
