Anatomical targets for fluoroscopic guided genicular nerve blockade. a Installation b Landmarks for infrapatellar branch of the saphenous nerve (Dashed blue line represents the treatment line) and recurrent fibular nerve (blue point) targeting. c Anterior-Posterior X-ray view of the knee. Landmarks of Cannula placement for targeting the Superior medial genicular nerve (Dashed red arrow), superior lateral genicular nerve (Upper blue arrow) and inferior medial genicular nerve (lower blue arrow). d Landmarks for targeting the same three nerves on the lateral view of the knee. SLGN, superior lateral genicular nerve; SMGN, superior medial genicular nerve; IMGN, inferior medial genicular nerve; IPBSN, infrapatellar branch of saphenous nerve; RFN, recurrent fibular nerve; P, patella; TT, tibial tuberosity; GT Gerdy’s tubercle
