The meniscus is a cartilage in the knee that helps with cushioning and stabilizing the joint. It's important for proper knee function, but not everyone needs it. If you have a meniscus injury or other knee issues, a healthcare professional can assess whether you need treatment or surgery.

What is a curved surface on a liquid called?
A meniscus, but whether it has a positive curve or a negative one depends on whether it wets the glass.
How is a meniscus used in measuring?
As the diameter of the container decreases, the meniscus becomes more pronounced. The meniscus may be convex (curving upward) or concave (curving downward). Most of the time you will find that the meniscus is concave. The most notable exception is the meniscus that forms from mercury. When taking measurement readings it is important that the reading is done properly. The following rules must be adhered to: I. Read the meniscus at eye level. Do not read the meniscus from above or below eye level. Significant measurement errors may occur II. Read the bottom of a concave meniscus and the top of a convex meniscus.
What is a saline meniscus test?
A saline meniscus test is a diagnostic procedure used to assess the integrity of the meniscus in the knee joint. It involves injecting saline solution into the knee joint to create a meniscus-like bulge. By evaluating the stability and response of this saline meniscus, healthcare providers can gather information about the condition of the knee's meniscus.
How do you return the meniscus to zero using a potometer?
To return the meniscus to zero in a potometer, you need to adjust the screw or knob on the leveling bulb or reservoir until the meniscus aligns with the zero mark on the scale. This ensures that the air bubble in the potometer is at the starting point for accurate measurements when taking readings for transpiration experiments.
When measuring you do the measurement from the bottom of the meniscus?
You should always measure at the lowest part of the meniscus. The meniscus is a slight curvature at the top of a liquid in a container.
Will the meniscus grow back?
No, if your meniscus is torn a surgeon can remove the torn part with a laser but later in life you will need to have a knee replacement.
