Integration of freeze-drying and Lugol-enhanced µCT imaging in virtual meniscus modelling for 3D printing and FE analysis
2024-04-17
Abstract excerpt
The knee menisci maintain stability and function of a healthy knee joint. Therefore, degenerative, or traumatic meniscus injuries may require meniscal implants to restore function. The aim of this study was to create a 3D-printable meniscus implant that emphasizes the representation of circumferential collagen fibres for biomechanical function. A novel Lugol-staining and freeze-drying technique was developed to pr...
