The computed tomography (CT) scan has great importance in the analysis of the patellofemoral joint [17]. It shows perfectly the bone morphology of the knee and allows the measurement of many knee parameters [1, 6, 7, 13, 14]. Some criticism exists about it not being able to evaluate the cartilage, but this can be solved if a contrast protocol (intra-articular) is used with the CT (arthro-CT). © 2010 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
