Abstract
The main aim of this research was finding the proper features of the posterior cruciate ligaments helpful in diagnosis. These features were determined based on the extracted structures of the posterior cruciate ligament and based on the T1-weighted MRI images of the knee joint. On the basis of these features a feature vector has been built. This feature vector has been used in computer diagnosis of the posterior cruciate ligaments.
