In recent years, highly detailed evaluations have been performed using three-dimensional computed tomography (3D CT). Very small bony ridges, such as Resident's ridge and the lateral bifurcate ridge can be visualised by 3D CT. The purpose of this study was to ascertain whether Parsons' knob, which was recognised as the bony landmark of the anterior cruciate ligament insertion on the tibia, can be visualised by 3D CT, and, if this is possible, to clarify its location and morphology.
