Radiographic features MRI It is a closely related condition to Osgood-Schlatter When they extend beyond the margins of the meniscus they are termed parameniscal cysts. The Insall-Salvati ratio is probably the most commonly used measurement to assess patellar height. These intracapsular but extrasynovial fat pads include the infrapatellar fat body of Hoffa, the suprapatellar fat pad, and the prefemoral fat pad. They more commonly occur in the medial meniscus and are often associated with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears.. Radiographic features MRI. ProtonPACS.
