Abstract
Current medical imaging technology provides orthopaedic surgeons with powerful tools to diagnose knee joint disorders. However, after having planned a corrective procedure, surgeons are confronted with the problem of transposing a pre-operative protocol based on medical images to the patient. Furthermore, this planning all to often bears an inherent qualitative character resulting from the current impossibility to fully appreciate the complexity of the joint’s biomechanics.
