ESSKA-ISAKOS Standard Terminology project:

definitions, classification and scoring sytems for arthoscopy

Download ESSKA ISAKOS Standard Terminilogy Project
As a chairman of the ESSKA Arthroscopy Committee it was André Frank that launched the idea of a standard terminology within ESSKA. As his successor on the ESSKA Arthroscopy Committee I soon experienced the magnitude of this task. Moreover I felt it would be important to involve ISAKOS. Speaking the same scientific language is a worldwide wish. I therefore made it my primary goal to get this project running. I am very pleased to present you the result of our combined efforts. I am particularly happy with the collaboration of ESSKA and ISAKOS in this project.
