Developing subject specific methods for knee joint injury detection using finite element analysis

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear occurs upwards of 400,000 times annually in the U.S. Reconstructive surgery and rehabilitation combine to create an annual $1 Billion expense. Associated cartilage damage leads to degenerative osteoarthritis. Injury mechanism theories include risk factors such a...
