"The medial condyle has a medial adductor tubercle, located superior to the medial epicondyle, a bony protuberance that acts as the attachment point the adductor minimus and the hamstrings part of the adductor magnus.The lateral condyle has the condylopatellar sulcus also known as the lateral notch, a groove in the lateral femoral condyle. The easy way to remember is femoral is flat."

Oxford Comma
suggestion

"This view is the ideal projection to assess the presence of knee joint effusion or lipohaemarthrosis as it demonstrates the suprapatellar bursa and associated fat pads for possible displacement or presence of fluid levels from knee pathology 1. Knee pathology can include fracture or dislocation of the femur, tibia, fibula or patella."

Line 3:346 · Use the Oxford comma in 'tibia, fibula or patella'.
