Abstract

Patellofemoral pain (PFP) is one of the most common disorders of the knee. However, the pathomechanics of PFP have not been fully elucidated. Our lack of understanding of PFP is partially due to difficulties with tracking the 3-D kinematics of the patellofemoral joint during important dynamic activities, such as running. Biplanar videoradiography can track dynamic 3-D bone motion with high accuracy, and is a promising modality for elucidating the pathomechanics of PFP. Recently, accuracies of 0.1 mm and 0.15⁰ were reported when tracking motion of the distal femur, radius, and ulna [1
