Abstract

The tibial tuberosity - trochlea groove distance (TT-TG) is an important radiological measurement in the assessment of patellofemoral instability, and the planning of its surgical treatment. This poster describes the testing of a new method of radiological measurement which may be used in cases of trochlear dysplasia.
