Claim Text:
1. A dynamic trialing method comprising: creating a bone model of a distal femur of a patient; determining a preliminary curved resection profile on the bone model offset from distal and posterior nonresected articular surfaces of the distal femur; determining a final desired resection profile prior to making a preliminary resection, the determined final desired resection profile being based at least in part on a planned resection of a bone surface of the preliminary curved resection profile; resecting the distal femur by making the preliminary resection along the preliminary curved resection profile such that a first area of bone is removed from the distal femur; engaging the resected distal femur to a tibial trial coupled to a resected proximal tibia; and performing intraoperative kinematic analysis by at least articulating the proximal tibia with respect to the distal femur.
