Abstract: 
Certain optical methods (photogrammetry) achieve great precision in analysis of body motion. The tracing of body surface movement is unsuitable for analysis of actual joint motion, at least in the knee joint, because of the soft tissue shifting which occurs. Comparatively simple mathematical-kinematic techniques can be used to check the degree of error of methods of measurement in orthopedics. No currently available knee joint prostheses function in a kinematically perfect manner. If the movement of knee joint prostheses is to be optimized, and if implantation errors affecting kinematics are to be avoided, it seems indispensable, at the current level of technology, to employ X-ray stereophotogrammetry to describe natural knee joint motion.
