Geometrical definitions of the parameters: height of the fibular head (HFH) from the imaginary tibial joint line to the tip of the fibular head, the lateral joint space distance (LJSD) from the imaginary tibial joint line to the lateral femoral condylar joint line at its midpoint, the height of the lateral tibial spine (HLTS), the height of the medial tibial spine (HMTS), the distance from the imaginary tibial joint line to the tip of the lateral intercondylar spine, and the distance from the lateral tibial spine to the lateral femoral condyle (DLC).
