Noble's Test

Previous | Next

Noble’s Test can also be performed to evaluate for iliotibial band syndrome. In a seated position with the knee flexed to 90 degrees, apply pressure over the lateral femoral epicondyle (where the iliotibial band crosses over) and passively extend the knee. Lateral knee pain around 30 degrees of flexion is a positive test.
