The 24-year-old, who plays for Napoli, sustained the injury during Scotland’s final World Cup warm-up match and will return to his club to begin rehabilitation.
“I am devastated for Billy because he has been an integral part of our World Cup qualifying campaign,” Scotland manager Steve Clarke said.
“The timing of this injury is so cruel and we all feel for him.”
Gilmour featured prominently in Scotland’s successful qualifying campaign and had been expected to play a key role at the tournament.
“He knows what we all think of him as a footballer and a person,” Clarke added. “I am certain Billy will have many major tournaments ahead of him in the future.”

Inter Milan could be crowned Serie A champion before it even kicks a ball against Parma on Sunday.
Cristian Chivu’s side has a 10-point lead over second-placed Napoli and is 12 points ahead of AC Milan, with four rounds remaining.
A home win against Parma on Sunday night would guarantee Inter the title. A point could also be enough, depending on the results of Napoli and Milan.
But Inter could seal the title even before kick-off at San Siro if Napoli loses at Champions League-chasing Como on Saturday and Milan fails to beat Sassuolo about four hours before Inter’s match.
It would be a first managerial trophy for Chivu, whose only previous senior coaching experience before the Inter job was a 13-match spell in charge of Parma at the end of last season.
Inter could also win the league and cup double as it faces Lazio in the Italian Cup final on May 13.

Behind Inter, the battle for the other three Champions League qualifying spots is heating up.
Fourth-placed Juventus is only three points above Como and Roma. Juve also trails third-placed Milan by three points.
Juventus hosts relegation-threatened Hellas Verona on Sunday, while Roma welcomes Fiorentina on Monday.
At the other end of the table, Pisa will be mathematically relegated if it fails to beat Lecce, which occupies the final safety spot in Serie A.
Cremonese is just one point behind Lecce and hosts Lazio on Monday. Verona is also in the relegation zone, 10 points adrift of Lecce.
Milan midfielder Luka Modric will miss the final four rounds after breaking his cheekbone against Juventus last weekend. The Croatia captain, who has been one of Milan’s best players, underwent surgery on Monday and faces a race to recover for the World Cup.
