[Vibration arthrography in the diagnosis of knee joint diseases].

In this paper, the principles of vibration arthrography are briefly described and the analysis of the resulting signals is explained. Using such a system, localisation of signals from within the joint is possible. Finally, the development of a vibration-based arthrographic system is proposed as a safe, relatively inexpensive, and totally non-invasive aid to the diagnosis of internal disease of the knee.
