{i} lens that is convex on one side and concave on the other (Optics); crescent or crescent-shaped body; disk of cartilage that cushions between the ends of two bones (Anatomy); curvature of the upper surface of liquid which is caused by surface tension
Crescent shaped cartilage, usually pertaining to the knee joint; also known as "cartilage " There are two menisci in the knee, medial and lateral These work to absorb weight within the knee and provide stability
The shape assumed by the surface of a liquid in a cylindrical container
