With the development and popularization of minimally invasive surgical methods and implants for fracture fixation, it is increasingly important that the available implants are precontoured to the specific anatomic location for which they are designed. The objective of this study was to develop a noninvasive method and criteria for quantifying the fit of a distal periarticular medial tibia plate and to test the method on a small set of tibia models.
