Avancerad bildanalys ger förståelse för skadade meniskers beteende under belastning En uppfriskande joggingtur i skogen kan lätt förvandlas till något annat om man inte har styr på benen. Den stötdämpande menisken är en liten men ack så viktig struktur i knät som tyvärr också är känslig för skador och sjukdom. Ett nyligen utfört projekt har med hjälp av 3D-bilder tagna under belastning av meniskpThe knee menisci distribute and dampen mechanical loads. Vulnerability to injury and disease of the meniscus is a global issue, particularly concerning osteoarthritis.
