POS derived from UTE can be used to reflect the degree of chronic ACL injury and shows better performance than IKDC
Figure 2. a:The comparison of POS between injured and uninjured group. *P<0.05. b: The comparison of POS-injury among 3 groups (Group 1: negative, Group 2: positive,Group 3:severe positive). * vs Group 1, P<0.05; # vs Group 2, P<0.05.
