“Locations of anatomical landmarks along the femur (lateral aspect of the greater trochanter, femoral head center, lateral and medial epicondyles of the distal femur, posterior aspect of the lateral and medial condyles of the femur) and tibia (the medial and lateral prominences of the tibial condyles as well as the posterior prominences of the condyles, both medial and lateral, and the lateral and medial malleoli) were detected using medical imaging software (Analyze 6.0).”
