Knee Joint 13 Intraarticular Structures, Posterior Aspectdoi:10.1007/978-3-642-60435-5_198Thiel, WalterSpringer Berlin Heidelberg
A knee joint simulator with anatomical reconstruction of the joint surfaces and of the ligamentous structures was built for teaching purposes. With this simulator it is possible to demonstrate the anatomy, physiology and kinematics of knee ligaments, to teach and learn how to conduct ligamentous ins...
aPainful, disabling joint disease of the knee resulting from degenerative arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis or post- traumatic arthritis * Post-traumatic loss of knee joint configuration and function * Moderate varus, valgus or flexion deformity in.which the ligamentous structures can be returned to ...
13. This effect is propagated to the injured muscle, joint or ligament, and surrounding tissue to facilitate the natural healing process9and post-injury treatment14,15, enhance muscle activity16,17and pain modulation7,8,14, provide neuro-sensory feedback to improve proprioception...
Review the anatomy, function, pathology, symptoms and treatment options of the pisotriquetral joint (PTJ) and periarticular structures. 2. To review imaging of the normal and abnormal PTJ and periarticular structures. 3. Viewer should be able to outline normal and abnormal imaging findings as ...
The design of biomimetic porous scaffolds has been gaining attention in the biomedical sector lately. Shells, marine sponges, shark teeth, cancellous bone, sea urchin spine, and the armadillo armor structure are examples of biological systems that have already been studied to drive the design of in...
However, although the bioactive role of lipids has only recently been more widely appreciated, the field of bioactive lipids arguably began in 1935 with the seminal work of Ulf Svante von Euler, who first identified the actions of substances that he would name “prostaglandins” [5]. Following ...
Zhu et al. [21] attempted to apply a TPMS structure printed by additive manufacturing (AM) to meniscus implantation in clinical medicine to restore the normal function of a knee joint and found that this artificial knee joint tissue had desired biomechanical properties. Oraib et al. [22] ...
An expandable structure made from an elastomer material is preformed to a desired geometry by exposure to heat and pressure. The structure undergoes controlled expansion and further distention in cancellous bone, with controlled deformation and without stress failure. Inventors...
Footwear, particularly athletic shoes, that has a sole structure copying support, stability and cushioning structures of the human foot. Still more particularly, this invention relates to the use of the shoe upper portion to envelop one or more portions of the shoe midsole in combination with port...
