- Abstract
The article focuses on a method of predicting joint line and posterior femoral condylar offset (PCO) of the knee in radiographs of the distal femur. It states a posterior condylar flare to the articular surface was used to measure PCO relative to a line drawn to the posterior cortex of the femur and the joint line. It mentions that there was a significant correlation between joint line and PCO with the width of the femoral diaphysis at the level of the condylar flare.
