2 Fig 1 Longitudinal ultrasound images of the bilateral medial meniscus. (A) Red arrow pointing the hypoechoic area indicates meniscocapsular separation (the right knee). (B) Normal medial meniscus without the hypoechoic area in the peripheral area (the left knee, contralateral healthy knee).

3 Fig 2 Magnetic resonance images of the medial meniscus of the right knee. Meniscal injury was not recognized at all sequences. (A) T1-weighted coronal sequence; (B) T2-weighted coronal sequence; and (C) T2 fat saturation sagittal sequence.
