Abstract
Disclosed herein are methods for determining resection depths for a knee arthroplasty procedure. The method may comprise the steps of determining a joint translation threshold, determining a joint translation of the femur with respect to the tibia during a joint gap measurement, setting a final joint gap measurement and determining knee resection depths based on the final joint gap measurement. The joint translation threshold may be defined as a translation distance of a femur with respect to a tibia. The joint translation may be less than or equal to the joint translation threshold.
