Knee notch shape in ACL injury
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study uses MRI to look at the shape of the notch in the thighbone at the knee. It aims to see if a certain notch shape makes an ACL tear more likely. You may join if you have an ACL injury or are a healthy volunteer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 50 years old
- You have an ACL tear confirmed by MRI (for the injury group) or you have no ACL injury (for the control group)
- You have not had any previous knee surgeries
- You do not have a knee deformity you were born with
- You do not have a condition that affects your bone health (like osteoporosis or certain chronic diseases)

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial studies ACL (knee ligament) injuries and how the tibia (shin bone) shifts, using MRI scans taken before surgery. It may help doctors better understand knee instability and improve how ACL injuries are evaluated and treated.
This trial tests a faster MRI scan method to measure healing in the knee after an ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) tear and reconstruction. It may help researchers compare scan quality while participants go through standard rehab.
This study uses MRI scans to check how well the new ACL graft (a piece of your own patellar tendon) heals after surgery. The goal is to see if the special treatment used with the graft helps it mature better.
This study looks at how the knee moves during surgery to fix a torn ACL. It may help doctors understand how to improve recovery after ACL and LAL reconstruction.
This study compares two angles (0° vs 30°) of knee bend when fixing a graft during ACL and ALL surgery. It aims to see if the angle affects recovery and knee stability.
This study looks at how a specific knee bone alignment issue seen on MRI relates to how well ACL surgery works afterward. It may help doctors better predict outcomes after ACL reconstruction.
