... by the International Society of Biomechanics (ISB) to determine tibiofemoral kinematics of the native (i.e., healthy) knee, determine variability associated with each JCS, and determine whether the FUNC JCS significantly reduced kinematic crosstalk errors compared to the ISB JCS. Based on a kinematic model consisting...

... and FFCs, this result obviates the need to add articular cartilage to 3D models of the femur to determine AP positions of the condyles. Hence, faster and less costly imaging techniques such as CT can be used instead of MRI to acquire 3D bone models for the analysis of tibiofemoral kinematics. In addition...
