Demonstration of the measurement technique in sagittal view of MRI. The knee joint line was identified by the line between the highest points of cartilage of the anterior and the posterior tibial plateau. Line C is the distance from the highest point of fibular head perpendicular to the knee joint line. Line D is the distance from tibial tubercle to the knee joint line. It is measured from the most proximal point where the patella tendon is inserted into the tibial tubercle to the knee joint line. Line E is the distance from the most inferior point of inferior pole patella perpendicular to the knee joint line
