Patellofemoral kinematics and contact mechanics are important measurements for the assessment of patellofemoral joint (PFJ) problems. Simultaneously measuring PFJ contact pressures and kinematics is a challenging task. The purpose of this study was to simultaneously measure the kinematics and mean/peak contact pressures in the PFJs of cadaveric knees.
