What is Arthroscopy?

Arthroscopy is a surgical procedure that is performed on joints. It is done to diagnose and treat joint problems. It is a minimally invasive procedure, i.e. it is a surgical procedure performed through tiny incisions. Arthroscopy is performed using an arthroscope.

Types of Arthroscopy

Arthroscopy can either be a Diagnostic Procedure or a Surgical Procedure.

Diagnostic Procedure:

Sometimes X-rays and other imaging methods can be insufficient. In such cases, Arthroscopy acts as a diagnostic procedure. The surgeon inserts a narrow tube through the small incision. This tube is fitted with a fibre optic video camera. This camera captures the view inside your joint which is then transmitted to a high-definition monitor.
