Lateral malleolus
QuestionChoice
The arrow is pointing to the lateral bone in the knee joint. This is the fibula not the tibia. The tibia is the larger bone that is located on the medial side of the fibula.

QuestionChoice
This x-ray shows the knee joint. The arrow is pointing to the bone at the lateral aspect of the knee and this is the fibula. The neck of the fibula is located more inferior to the head. The arrow is pointing to the most superior portion of the fibula, which is the head.

b
Neck of the fibula
QuestionChoice
This X-ray shows the knee joint, and the arrow is pointing to the fibula, the thinner bone on the lateral aspect of the leg. The proximal end of the fibula, known as the head of the fibula, articulates with the lateral condyle of the tibia at the proximal tibiofibular joint. While the fibula does not directly contribute to the knee joint itself, it provides attachment points for ligaments and muscles such as the biceps femoris and fibular collateral ligament, playing a crucial role in stabilizing the lower leg and supporting ankle movement.
