Knee anatomic geometry accurately predicts risk of anterior cruciate ligament rupture.

Published in: Acta radiologica (Stockholm, Sweden : 1987) (2023)

Greater postero-inferior directed slope measurements of bone and cartilage in both the lateral and medial compartments with a narrower intercondylar notch width increase the risk of ACL rupture. Mathematical modelling can accurately predict the risk of ACL rupture.
