Abstract: We developed an open-sourced program that accounts for the current limitations of B-mode ultrasound and extends the clinical utility of ultrasound for assessing femoral trochlear cartilage thickness. Images were collected on 18 patients with a history of knee surgery. By failing to account for ultrasound acoustics and beam refraction, cartilage thickness was underestimated by 26% and overestimated by 0–4%, respectively (p
