A number of tests may be used to evaluate a knee injury. The choice of tests is based on the mechanism of injury and the current complaints. After that, the examiner will observe the joint, move the joint through range of motion, and may do some special examinations to evaluate the stability of the joint and any signs of "catching" in the knee. X-rays are not normally used unless there was trauma such as a motor vehicle accident. MRI may be used in selected cases to evaluate the soft tissue of the knee.

During this test, the examiner flexes and rotates the knee while applying a varus or valgus stress to identify any clicking or pain indicative of a meniscal injury.
