Q

Define: Enthesophyte

A

Osseous proliferation at the insertion of ligaments/tendons/joint capsule on the bone - usually grow in the direction of the pull of the soft tissue structure

17
Q

Define: Intracapsular Swelling

Q

Define: Extracapsular Swelling

A

Outside the joint
Cellulitis, edema, hemorrhage, abscess
