Evaluation of a relatively hyperosmolar irrigation solution for use in equine femorotibial arthroscopy
… for an exploratory medial femorotibial joint arthroscopy. Primary outcomes focused on the amount of periarticular fluid retention based on change in stifle girth and ultrasonographic (US) measurements. The water content of the tissue samples was assessed, and viability of the cartilage tissue …

International Comparative Analysis to Understand the Capacity for Arthroscopy Training and Practice in Developing Countries
Purpose: Arthroscopy is an efficacious and popular treatment modality in the United States and other developed nations for a variety of musculoskeletal conditions and injuries. However, arthroscopy requires specialized training, complex infrastructure, and expensive equipment causing barriers to …

Initial validation of the arthroscopic skills acquisition tools (ASATs) : a low cost, online tool to develop and evaluate core skills for shoulder arthroscopy
… and evaluate the core skills for shoulder arthroscopy, to complement training on VR simulators, cadavers and real patients. This thesis presents the initial validation study of the ASATs. Performance, assessed using a VR simulator correlates with intra-operative and cadaveric arthroscopic …

Scaphoid Fractures - epidemiology, diagnosis and treatment.
… studied in relation to skeletal maturity. Using arthroscopy we aimed at identifying factors, which could contribute to prolonged union or non-union of scaphoid fractures. Finally, we evaluated time-to-union of scaphoid waist fractures treated conservatively or by arthroscopy-assisted surgery. In …

An Augmented Virtuality Navigation System for Arthroscopic Knee Surgery
… system to help improve target acquisition in arthroscopy by visualizing the location and alignment of an arthroscope using augmented virtuality. A 3D computer model of the patient's joint (from CT) is shown, along with a model of the tracked arthroscopic probe and the projection of the camera …

Minimally invasive diagnostic imaging using high resolution Optical Coherence Tomography
… work. Biomedical imaging studies in the areas of arthroscopy, cardiology, and endoscopy have been investigated with ultrahigh resolution capability achieved through the use of broadband femtosecond oscillators such as Ti:Sapphire and Cr:Forsterite light sources. OCT image resolutions of 1-5um in …

Spatially-localized correlation of MRI and mechanical stiffness to assess cartilage integrity in the human tibial plateau
… integrity is the use of a hand probe during arthroscopy. Mechanical probing, however, is invasive and requires anesthesia. Tightly confined areas of the articular surface can be difficult to reach and assess, and manual probing provides a subjective rather than a quantitative assessment of …
