# Measuring Technique: Menisci & Tibial Plateaus

### __Soft Tissue Measurements__

${color}[#3f48cc](Lateral Meniscus Length: )Maximum ${color}[#000000](measurement from anterior to posterior.)
${color}[#88001b](Lateral Meniscus Width: )Maximum measurement from the ICT to the outer meniscal margin, medial to lateral.
${color}[#00a8f3](Medial Meniscus Length: )Maximum measurement from anterior to posterior.
${color}[#ec1c24](Medial Meniscus Width: )Maximum measurement from the ICT to the outer meniscal margin, medial to lateral.

*Take all measurements prior to releasing, cutting, and/or shaping the menisci.
*ICT=Intercondylar Tubercles, two bony eminences (one medial and one lateral) near the center of the tibial plateau.
