The shape of the articular surfaces of the tibiofemoral joint may influence the amount of anterior tibial translation under compressive loading. Thus, a steep lateral tibial plateau and a shallow medial plateau are thought to be risk factors for ACL injury.</p><p><strong>Purpose/hypothesis: </strong>The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether tibial plateau slope and depth influence peak ACL strain during a single-leg jump.

Two orthopaedic surgeons used the sagittal plane MRI scans to measure the medial and lateral tibial plateau slopes and the medial tibial plateau depth.
