Which type of articulation has a joint capsule?
A synovial joint has a joint capsule. This capsule surrounds the joint and is lined with a membrane that secretes synovial fluid, which helps reduce friction and provide nutrients to the joint.
What is the ligament called found outside a joint capsule?
The accessory ligament is the ligament found outside a joint capsule.
What is the purpose of an arthogram?
This kind of medical procedure allows inspection of the soft tissues of the joint, including muscles, ligaments, cartilage, tendons, and the joint capsule, none of which would be visible through a regular x-ray. It can be a diagnostic and therapeutic.
What joints have a fibrous capsule lined with synovial membrane surrounding a joint cavity?
Synovial joints, such as the knee or shoulder, have a fibrous capsule lined with synovial membrane. This membrane secretes synovial fluid which lubricates the joint and nourishes the cartilage surfaces. The joint capsule helps provide stability and support to the joint.
What is the outermost part of a synovial joint?
The outermost part of a synovial joint is the joint capsule. This capsule is a tough, fibrous structure that surrounds the joint and helps provide stability. It also secretes synovial fluid, which lubricates the joint and nourishes the cartilage within.
What is the medical term meaning artificial joint?
A joint prosthesis is an artificial joint.
What is knee revision surgery?

The accessory ligament is the ligament found outside a joint capsule.
What is the medical term meaning surgical puncture of a joint?
Arthrocentesis is the surgical puncture of a joint space to remove synovial fluid.Basically put a needle in the joint, and then aspirate the fluid. This is usually a diagnostic and not a therapeutic procedure. The fluid is then sent for investigation. It can be a therapeutic procedure, though it won't cure, but it may relieve pain (for example with arthritis).As infection in a joint is to be avoided at all costs, this should be done under the most aseptic circumstances possible.arthrocentesisArthrocentesis (arthr = joint + centesis = puncture) is procedure where a syringe is used to collect synovial fluid from the joint capsule for examination. It is also known as joint aspiration. The procedure is used to diagnose gout, arthritis and synovial infections.Arthrocentesis (arthr = joint + centesis = puncture) is procedure where a syringe is used to collect synovial fluid from the joint capsule for examination.

Bones of a synovial joint are held together by?
joint capsule
What reinforces the fibrous capsule helping to prevent dislocation of the joint?
The two layers that make up the fibrous capsule is what reinforces the capsule. The stratum fibrosum and the stratum synovial are what prevents the joint from dislocating.
Can the joint capsule be pierced?
Not for the sake of body piercing, only in the event of surgical procedures should the joint capsule be pierced, then it is balanced with saline solution to prevent damage to the joint. The capsule contains fluid that allows the joint to move freely without friction damage by direct contact of the ball and socket. Piercing that capsule will damage the joint an repair will be difficult if not impossible once damage is done.
A joint capsule is reinforced by tendons binding articular ends of bones together?
Ligaments are used to bind the articular ends of bones together reinforcing the joint capsule. These can be thickenings in the fibrous layer of the joint capsule or accessory structures that are located outside of the joint capsule.
