  2. 3 Research Questions • What is the anatomy of the knee? • What is the physiology of the knee? • How does arthritis affect the knee?

  3. What is the anatomy and physiology of the knee?Sagittal MR Image

  4. How does arthritis affect the knee? • Osteoarthritis • Causes • Symptoms • http://www.allaboutarthritis.com/AllAboutArthritis/layoutTemplates/html/en/contentdisplay/document.jsp?docID=condition/arthritis/generalArticle/arthritis_signs_symptoms.xml

  5. Biblical Application • Ephesians 3:14 “For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,” • C.S. Lewis promotes prayer on knees

  7. Glossary • Osteoarthritis - A form of arthritis, occurring mainly in older persons, that is characterized by chronic degeneration of the cartilage of the joints. • Infrapatellar Fat Pad - The infrapatellar fat pad refers to a region of fatty tissue lying deep to the patellar tendon, also known as Hoffa's fat pad. • Popliteus - A muscle located in the floor of the popliteal space in close contact with the posterior capsule of the knee joint. • Orthopaedic Surgeon - Orthopaedic surgeons evaluate and treat bone, joint, tendon and ligament disorders and diseases • Prepatellar Bursa - The prepatellar bursa is a synovial-lined potential space lying between the skin surface and the anterior aspect of the patella.
