Objective This work aimed to assess tibial rotations, meniscal movements, and
morphological changes during knee flexion and extension using kinematic magnetic …

Purpose To assess the feasibility of high resolution knee cartilage MRI with in situ
mechanical loading using optical tracking to compensate for motion. Methods In vivo …

Background: The lateral meniscus is a unique structure of the knee joint, and its anatomy,
function, pathological process, and treatment are distinct from those of the medial meniscus …

Knee kinematics provide information about how the femoral, tibial and patellar bones or
prosthetic components move relative to each other. Accurate knowledge of kinematics is …

Background Real-time sequences allow functional evaluation of various joint structures
during a continuous motion and help understand the pathomechanics of underlying …

The material properties of in vivo meniscal attachments were evaluated using a probabilistic
finite element (FE) model and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MRI scans of five subjects …

Background It remains unknown how biomechanics change in posterior lateral knee using
different fixation techniques in lateral meniscal allograft transplantation (MAT) during …

An integrative and repeatable method that assesses quantitative magnetic resonance
imaging (qMRI), mechanical measures by MRI (mechMRI) and gait (kinetics and kinematics) …

Total knee arthroplasty is a surgical procedure in which the knee is resurfaced with implants
to relieve pain. This thesis presents computed tomography and radiography methods to …

Problem: Surgery to reconstruct the Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) does not mitigate the
elevated risk of arthritis after ACL rupture. There is indirect evidence of persistent contact …
