Journal ArticleDOI

Experimental and numerical validation for the novel configuration of an arthroscopic indentation instrument.

TL;DR: The instrument presented in this study allows easy and reproducible measurement of cartilage stiffness, also in thin cartilage, and therefore represents a technical improvement for the early diagnosis of osteoarthrosis during arthroscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bone mineral density in the proximal femur and contralateral knee after total knee arthroplasty.

TL;DR: Improved mobility after TKA does not improve the effects of preoperative disuse-associated bone loss in the short term, and bone mineral density values in the affected side compared with the contralateral hip remained similar or decreased during a 1-yr follow-up.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optical absorption spectra of human articular cartilage correlate with biomechanical properties, histological score and biochemical composition

TL;DR: It is concluded that optical absorption of human cartilage in the VIS and NIR spectral range correlates with the overall tissue properties, thus providing knowledge that could facilitate development of systems for rapid assessment of tissue integrity.
Journal ArticleDOI

In Vivo Contrast-Enhanced Cone Beam CT Provides Quantitative Information on Articular Cartilage and Subchondral Bone.

TL;DR: For the first time, delayed cone beam computed tomography arthrography (dCBCTa) enabled the detection of articular cartilage injuries and subchondral bone alterations simultaneously in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of single-phase isotropic elastic and fibril-reinforced poroelastic models for indentation of rabbit articular cartilage.

TL;DR: The results indicate that the instantaneous indentation modulus (IE model) provides information on tensile stiffness of collagen fibrils in cartilage while the equilibrium modulus is a significant measure for stiffness of PG matrix, highlighting the feasibility of a simple indentation analysis.
