Articular cartilage plays important roles in weight-bearing, lubrication, and load distribution in articulating joints. The tissue is mostly extracellular matrix (>90% by volume) that is synthesized and remodeled by cells (chondrocytes) embedded within. Ad ...
In the recent years medical diagnosis and surgery planning often require the precise evaluation of joint movements. This has led to exploit reconstructed three-dimensional models of the joint tissues obtained from CT or MR Images (for bones, cartilages, et ...
Injuries to the meniscus are often treated by partial or total meniscectomy, which is known to be associated with detrimental changes in joint function, ultimately increasing the risk of early degenerative joint diseases. Surgical approaches currently in u ...
Trochlear dysplasia is an anatomic anomaly of the knee that is characterized by an abnormal geometry of the trochlea. The normal shape of the trochlea is concave, but when the trochlea is flat, the patient may experience knee pain, instability and a higher ...
Over the past few years, several genes involved in the development of the tetrapod limbs have been isolated and characterized. Thus, it becomes possible to study some of the developmental mechanisms responsible for the morphogenesis of these complex struct ...
Frequency domain optical coherence tomography (FD-OCT) allows interferometer topologies with simplified system construction and handling. Problems of dispersion and polarization matching between the sample and reference arms, as well as beamsplitter spectr ...
