Figure 5.

A typical set of pressure maps for one knee, showing the changes in pressure distribution of the medial and lateral compartments as a function of coronal tibial slope with the knee at 20° of flexion. When the medial downslope was increased, a higher pressure could be seen at the lateral part of the intercondylar eminence and on the medial meniscus. When the tibial slope was changed laterally, the areas of high pressure moved to the medial tibial intercondylar eminence and the lateral meniscus. JLO, joint line obliquity.
