Overuse-related injuries of the knee joint and periarticular soft tissues include a heterogenous group of sports and nonsports-related injuries. These conditions include friction and impingement syndromes, bone stress injuries, bursitis, and tendon-related pathology such as tendinopathy and snapping. Traction apophysitis are also discussed as commonly seen in the pediatric population. Although multiple imaging modalities can be used, this review focuses on MR imaging, which is the most common and, often, the only modality used.
