Influence of medial and lateral imaging plane inclination on assessment of trochlear depth, sulcus angle, and facet asymmetry in the setting of trochlear anatomy: a cadaveric study

ConclusionMedial or lateral inclination in the transverse imaging plane of 8 ° does not influence the values of typical parameters used for the assessment of trochlear dysplasia. The measurement height has a significant influence, and a consensus should be found as to which is the optimal measurement height.
