BACKGROUND: In the diagnosis of patellar instability, three-dimensional (3D) imaging enables measurement of a wide range of metrics. However, measuring these metrics can be time-consuming and prone to error due to conducting 2D measurements on 3D obj...
BACKGROUND: Patient-reported joint instability after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is difficult to quantify objectively. Here, we apply machine learning to cluster TKA subjects using nine literature-proposed gait parameters as knee instability predic...

PURPOSE: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is considered the gold standard treatment for end-stage knee osteoarthritis. Common complications associated with TKA include implant loosening and periprosthetic fractures, which often require revision surgery ...
Robot-assisted isokinetic training has been widely adopted for knee rehabilitation. However, existing rehabilitation facilities are often heavy, bulky, and extremely energy-consuming, which limits the rehabilitation opportunities only at designated h...
BACKGROUND: Knee pain is associated with not only individual factors such as age and obesity but also physical activity factors such as occupational activities and exercise, which has a significant impact on the lives of adults and the elderly.
BACKGROUND: Accurate assessment of knee alignment in pre- and post-operative radiographs is crucial for knee arthroplasty planning and evaluation. Current methods rely on manual alignment assessment, which is time-consuming and error-prone. This stud...
BACKGROUND: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is a widely performed procedure for ACL injury, but there are several factors which may lead to re-rupture or clinical failure. An intercondylar notch (or fossa) that is narrower may increas...

This study presents a novel wearable solution integrating Polymer Optical Fiber (POF) sensors into a knee sleeve to monitor knee flexion/extension (F/E) patterns during walking. POF sensors offer advantages such as flexibility, light weight, and robu...
Knee Osteoarthritis (KOA), a leading cause of disability worldwide, is challenging to detect early due to subtle radiographic indicators. Diverse, extensive datasets are needed but are challenging to compile because of privacy, data collection limita...
