Researchers are testing a standardized ultrasound scoring system called OMERACT to see if it accurately and reliably measures knee osteoarthritis in Turkish patients. Ultrasound is a safe, painless imaging method that can show both inflammation and structural damage in the knee. This study will help doctors use this tool confidently in clinical practice in Turkey.
While this ultrasound scoring system works well in other countries, no one has yet verified that it works reliably in Turkish patients. Because genetics, body types, and healthcare practices differ between populations, this validation study ensures the method is trustworthy for Turkish care.

If you enroll, you will have an ultrasound examination of both knees that takes about 8 to 10 minutes. The ultrasound technician will look at the structures inside your knee, including any inflammation or fluid buildup. The study is observational, meaning researchers are measuring and observing—not giving you medication or a new treatment. You will likely have one or a few visits to complete the ultrasound scans and answer questions about your knee symptoms.
