Ultrasound-guided knee surgery planning
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study uses ultrasound to create a 3D model of your knee before surgery, which may help the surgeon plan and guide the procedure more precisely. It is for people having knee replacement, realignment, or ACL reconstruction.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for knee surgery: total knee replacement, high tibial osteotomy, or ACL reconstruction.
- You do not have an active infection.
- Your knee shape and leg alignment are typical (no unusual anatomy).
- Your knee is stable, except for ACL deficiency if you are having ACL reconstruction.
- Your knee can fully straighten (no fixed bend of 10 degrees or more) and can bend at least 120 degrees.

This study measures how your knee moves during everyday activities before your knee arthroscopy. The goal is to better understand knee function and improve future treatments.
This study looks at knee replacement surgery done with digital tools like robots or computer guidance. It may help people with knee arthritis find better ways to have surgery and recover.
This study compares two different ways surgeons can align and position a robotic knee replacement to see which gives better results. You'll be randomly assigned to one approach and tracked over time to measure pain, function, and satisfaction.
This study compares two different techniques (mechanical alignment vs. kinematic alignment) used during knee replacement surgery with a special knee system. It aims to see which technique leads to better results for patients.
This trial studies whether a NextAR system’s planning and gait (walking) analysis can improve how knee replacement surgery is done and how you walk afterward. It’s for adults with severe knee osteoarthritis who are eligible for total knee replacement.
This study compares two different surgical techniques for total knee replacement to see which one leads to better knee movement and function. If you need a knee replacement due to arthritis, this trial may help find the best approach for your surgery.
