Measuring The Q Angle: A Comprehensive Guide For Assessing Patellofemoral Joint Alignment
To measure the Q angle, determine the anatomical landmarks: the anterior superior iliac spine, patella, and tibial tubercle. Use a goniometer to align one arm with the anterior superior iliac spine and patella, and the other arm with the patella and tibial tubercle. Measure the angle in degrees. An inclinometer can measure the angle of…
