Introduction | History of Empiricism. Empiricism is the theory that the origin of all knowledge is sense experience. It emphasizes the role of experience and evidence, especially sensory perception, in the formation of ideas, and argues that the only knowledge humans can have is a posteriori (i.e. based on experience).
The main anatomic structures of the posterolateral aspect of the knee are the lateral (fibular) collateral ligament (LCL) , the popliteus tendon and the popliteofibular ligament.
The popliteal artery usually divides at the distal border of the popliteus muscle into the tibioperoneal trunk and anterior tibial artery. While still in the posterior compartment of the leg, the anterior tibial artery gives off the: recurrent posterior popliteal artery. circumflex fibular artery.
