ASB Clinical Biomechanics Award Paper 2010

ASB Clinical Biomechanics Award Paper 2010 Virtual pre-operative reconstruction planning for comminuted articular fractures.

BACKGROUND Highly comminuted intra-articular fractures are complex and difficult injuries to treat. Once emergent care is rendered, the definitive treatment objective is to restore the original anatomy while minimizing surgically induced trauma. Operations that use limited or percutaneous approaches help preserve tissue vitality, but reduced visibility makes reconstruction more difficult. A pre...

ASB clinical biomechanics award winner 2006 prospective study of the biomechanical factors associated with iliotibial band syndrome.

BACKGROUND Iliotibial band syndrome is the leading cause of lateral knee pain in runners. Despite its high prevalence, little is known about the biomechanics that lead to this syndrome. The purpose of this study was to prospectively compare lower extremity kinematics and kinetics between a group of female runners who develop iliotibial band syndrome compared to healthy controls. It was hypothes...

The Ackermann Award 2010

The eighth Ackermann Award is presented at this CSL’12, held in Fontainebleau, France. This is the sixth year in which the EACSL Ackermann Award is generously sponsored. Our sponsor for the period 2011–2013 is the Kurt Gödel Society. Besides providing financial support for the Ackermann Award, the KGS also committed itself to inviting recipients of the Award for a special lecture to be given in...
