ICRS SCORE/GRADE
ICRS Clinical Cartilage Injury Evaluation System
There was a discussion regarding the use of IKDC-1999 vs KOOS (Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score). The decision in Göteborg was to continue with IKDC but there will also be comparative studies with the KOOS (www.koos.nu)
The clinical evaluation system can also be combined with the ICRS Imaging Protocol as well as the ICRS Biomechanical Protocol. The ICRS Clinical Cartilage Injury Evaluation system – 2000 was developed during ICRS 2000 Standards Workshop at Schloss Münchenwiler, Switzerland, January 27-30, 2000.
