Overview

The purpose of this study is assess the severity of osteoarthritic knee between one-leg and both-leg standing radiograph in primary OA knee

All patients were performed digital radiographs which one-leg and both-leg standing anteroposterior view. Medial and lateral joint space width were measured. The severity of OA knee was identified by the Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) classification.
