Conformable and robust microfluidic force sensors for orthopaedic surgery
Quantitative force feedback for orthopaedic surgeons is crucial for the accurate positioning of implants during total hip and knee arthroplasty (THA and TKA respectively). During the trial stage of THA, the surgeon manually determines the implant size, positioning, and range of joint motion of the …

Haptic emulation of hard surfaces with applications to orthopaedic surgery
A generally accepted goal in orthopaedic surgery today is to maximize conservation of tissue and reduce tissue damage. Bone-conserving implants have bone-mating surfaces that reproduce the natural curvature of bone structures, requiring less bone removal. No small, reliable, inexpensive and …

3D Reconstruction of Patient Specific Bone Models for Image Guided Orthopaedic Surgery
… in 3D plays an important role in image guided orthopaedic surgery. Existing research often focuses on intra-operative registration of the patients' anatomy with pre-operatively obtained 3D volumetric data (e.g. CT scans) utilising fiduciary markers. This expensive and invasive approach is not …

Tissue engineering the anterior cruciate ligament : a regenerative medicine approach in orthopaedic surgery
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries affect over 200,000 Americans yearly, and many occur in young athletes. Current treatment options include tendon autografts and cadaveric allografts. However, these approaches often lead to secondary medical problems, such as donor-site morbidity and immune …
