“Application, Accuracy and Subject-repeatability by Dynamic MR Technique

Technique	Application	Accuracy^* (in mm of in-plane translation)	Subject-repeatability^** (in mm of superior inferior translation / ° of patellar tilt)
Stress MRI	Imaging of joints in atypical positions or under a load	0.30 (0.11) ^{31, 32}	0.81 (0.37) / 1.04 (0.35) ³²
Cine PC MRI	Imaging of anatomy and velocity during dynamic tasks	0.28 (0.22) ³¹	0.73 (0.31) / 1.10 (0.35) ³¹
Real Time MRI	Imaging of anatomy and velocity during dynamic tasks in a single motion cycle	2.0^{11, 31}	-- / 2.0^{11, 21}

Validated accuracy reported for patellofemoral joint as absolute average error or RMS error. The mean standard deviation is listed in parentheses. Sagittal plane was assumed for in-plane motion, worst error for all three motion direction planes listed if all were acquired.

^**

Validated subject-repeatability reported for the patellofemoral joint as mean across subjects of the standard deviation across trials.
