Watched a 10mim clip on Toutube on knee assessment as I am keen to get better in this area.

I was most interested in Hoffa's test for fat pad irritation but it wa not covered.

It was interesting to see they perform the valgus and carus collateral ligament stress tests in 30 degrees knew flexion only and not in neutral : to remove the stabilising effect of the joint capsule. Something I had not considered.

The video was by a US DO osteopathic doctor. In the USA osteopaths are part of mainstream medicine much more.
