Abstract
Ten porcine tibiae were scanned by computed tomography (CT) and the three‑dimensional (3D)-printed navigation template for posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction was designed using the Rhinoceros software. The outcomes of the control group and experimental group were obtained from the preoperative design and the navigation template, respectively. This paper focuses on evaluating the accuracy of the 3D-printed navigation template used to assist the anatomical location of tibial tunnel in PCL reconstruction in an in-vitro experimental study.
期刊介绍:
The primary aims of Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering are to provide a means of communicating the advances being made in the areas of biomechanics and biomedical engineering and to stimulate interest in the continually emerging computer based technologies which are being applied in these multidisciplinary subjects. Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering will also provide a focus for the importance of integrating the disciplines of engineering with medical technology and clinical expertise. Such integration will have a major impact on health care in the future.
