Joint laminate degradation assessed by reflected ultrasound from the cartilage surface and osteochondral junction.
The ability to quantify and qualify the progression of joint degeneration is becoming increasingly important in surgery. This paper examines the patterns of relative ultrasound reflection from normal, artificially and naturally degraded cartilage-on-bone, particularly investigating the potential of...
