Magnetic resonance imaging is an appealing approach for
measuring knee kinematics. We have developed a novel
combined tibial and femoral algorithm for determining MR-based
knee kinematic measurements. Tibial and femoral
coordinate systems were established from bone
segmentations and used to establish coordinate systems
to measure anterior tibial translation and internal
tibial rotation. Using this novel method, knee MR images
from five subjects were segmented by two independent
researchers. Intra-class correlation coefficient
measurements exhibited excellent inter-user and
intra-user reliability of this combined registration
method over a tibial only based approach.
