“…expected, aSSM encoded the main physiologic variants of the femoral morphology. In agreement with the literature, no explicit association between trochlear depth and notch width was detected for the HG 23. As a result, both bSSM and cSSM captured the trochlear sulcus flatness as a main feature of the morphologic variability of trochlea.…”

“…However, two main aspects make critical the application of such indexes to dysplastic staging. First, the reliability of the thresholds to be defined in order to discern the severity of the pathology is contingent to the anthropometric variability (size, age, race, and gender) . Second, as the degeneration progresses, the trochlear morphology detaches from the physiological shape making anatomic landmarks difficult to measure or even meaningless .…”

“…1 Recently, there has been renewed interest in quantifying relevant anatomic landmarks for various pathologies; yet, there currently exist minimal data regarding assessing maximal trochlear depth. 8,[20][21][22] Axial (tangential) projections such as the "sunrise" view allow visualization of these surfaces not commonly seen on AP or lateral imaging. Numerous other projections exist, and are based on modifications of the BFA and knee flexion angle.…”

“…The lateral patellofemoral angle is the angle between the line drawn along the lateral patellar facet and the line drawn connecting the most anterior aspects of the medial to and lateral femoral condyles [25,32] (Figure 4). The ratio of the lengths of the medial to lateral trochlear facets were measured along the osseous surface at the level of the ACL femoral insertion on axial images [33,34]. The trochlear sulcal angle was measured on axial images at the level of the ACL femoral insertion along the osseous surface [33].…”
