Emphasis is placed on anatomy, biomechanics, red flag screening, and quadrant-based assessment of anterior, medial, lateral, and posterior knee pain.Aligned with current clinical practice guidelines (CPGs), this course equips clinicians to make confident decisions regarding treatment planning, referral, and onward investigation—ultimately improving patient outcomes and clinical safety.
