A new study published in BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders confirmed that biomechanical markers are more associated with pain, symptoms and disability compared to imaging findings in knee osteoarthritis patients.
Researchers recommend the use of a complementary objective biomechanical evaluation using the KneeKG to conventional imaging to obtain a more complete functional profile of knee OA patients. These results constitute a valuable step towards precision medicine, allowing clinicians to identify modifiable targets linked with pain and function and address them with therapeutic measures tailored for each patient.
