Abstract:PurposeThis study assessed the measurements of the medial posterior tibial slope (MPTS) using long radiographs and three‐dimensional (3D) computed tomography (CT) scans and compared them to measurements taken on short lateral knee radiographs. The study aimed to identify whether the at‐risk slope measurements previously defined on the short radiographs would be similar to long radiographs and 3D CT scans.MethodsA retrospective radiological review of 52 cases, who underwent planning for a slope‐changing high ti… Show more
