| dc.description.abstract | The aim of this study was to assess the inter-examiner reliability of motion palpation of the patella, in both pathological (osteoarthritis) as well as functional (patellofemoral pain syndrome) conditions, in order to assess the validity of this assessment tool, which is commonly used as a method in identifying restricted patella motion. | en_US |
