Comparative study of the tibial tubercle-trochlear groove distance measured in two ways and tibial tubercle-posterior cruciate ligament distance in patients with patellofemoral instability

Abstract Background A comparative analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of three different methods for radiologic evaluation of patellofemoral instability (PFI). Methods Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were performed in 47 patients with or without PFI. The tibial tub...
