MPL Medial Patellar Luxation, 0 = no MPL, 1 = Grad 1, 3 = Grad 3. Height at the withers was measured while the dogs were standing. aTrochlea severely worn, the trochlea depth could not be measured. b virtual reconstruction of the patella belongs to this dog. cvirtual reconstruction of the femur belongs to this dog. Dogs 1, 2, 3, 4 belonged to [30], while 5, 6, and 7 to a not published study to trunk kinematics, see acknowledgements
