(UConn) – UConn bioengineers successfully regrew cartilage in a rabbit’s knee, a promising hop toward healing joints in humans, they report in the January 12 issue of Science Translational Medicine. […]
A groundbreaking new treatment that uses 3D printed implants and that could bring relief to tens of thousands of knee osteoarthritis sufferers has received approval to be trialled in UK patients, following a virtual “in-silico” trial that demonstrated its safety. […]
Researchers at Stanford have discovered a way to regenerate, in mice and human tissue, the cushion of cartilage found in joints. Loss of this shock-absorbing tissue layer, called articular cartilage, is responsible for many cases of joint pain and arthritis, which afflicts more than 55 million Americans. […]
(Popular Science) – Gina Ciavarra is sitting in a dark room at NYU Langone Health in Manhattan. It’s a reading room, a space for radiologists like her to examine X-ray and MRI scans. The monitors in front of her display grayscale images of a de-identified patient’s knee, and in them she detects one key problem: a torn ACL. […]
(Imperial College London) – Researchers at Imperial College London have developed a prototype mini MRI scanner that fits around a patient’s leg. The team say the device – which uses so-called ‘magic angle’ effect – could potentially help diagnose knee injuries more quickly, and more accurately. […]
(MD+DI) – The KneeKG evaluates knee functional deficiencies while the joint is in motion and bearing weight, providing physicians with more information about diseases or injuries than static technologies such as x-ray or MRI. […]
