<br/><br/> Patellar instability requires an intricate understanding in order to properly treat patients.  Often, the etiology of this entitiy is multifactorial, combining a series of physiologic and  anatomic variables. A thorough history and physical as well as imaging examinations are  critical in both establishing the diagnosis and instituting the correct treatment. Digital  radiography is a well established imaging modality in diagnosing patellar instability,  However there are limited reports of a measure of patella position using ultrasound. Lack  of radiation and availability of ultrasound make it a superb modlity worth establishing in  the diagnosis of patellar maltracking
