Fig. 2

Non-weight-bearing tunnel view measurement; medial tibial eminence–medial femoral condyle distance; medial tibiofemoral joint width. a The medial tibial eminence (MTE) line was drawn perpendicular to the line tangent to the medial and lateral condyles. The medial femoral condyle (MFC) line is perpendicular to the medial and lateral condyles of the femur and tangent to the medial side of the femur. The MTE–MFC distance is indicated by a black arrow. b The medial tibiofemoral joint (MTFJ) width was measured from the center of the medial femoral condyle to the center of the medial tibial plateau. The MTFJ width is indicated by a black arrow
