New Imaging Methods for Non-invasive Assessment of Mechanical, Structural, and Biochemical Properties of Human Achilles Tendon: A Mini Review

New Imaging Methods for Non-invasive Assessment of Mechanical, Structural, and Biochemical Properties of Human Achilles Tendon: A Mini Review

The mechanical properties of tendon play a fundamental role to passively transmit forces from muscle to bone, withstand sudden stretches, and act as a mechanical buffer allowing the muscle to work more efficiently. The use of non-invasive imaging methods for the assessment of human tendon's mechanical, structural, and biochemical properties in vivo is relatively young in sports medicine, clinic...

Mechanical properties of the human achilles tendon.

OBJECTIVE To determine whether the human Achilles tendon has higher material properties than other tendons and to test for strain rate sensitivity of the tendon. DESIGN Mechanical testing of excised tendons. BACKGROUND While the human Achilles tendon appears to experience higher in vivo stresses than other tendons, it is not known how the Achilles tendon's material properties compare with t...

Mini-invasive Technique of Achilles Tendon Lengthening

determination of some physical and mechanical properties red bean

چکیده: در این تحقیق، برخی خواص فیزیکی و مکانیکی لوبیا قرمز به-صورت تابعی از محتوی رطوبت بررسی شد. نتایج نشان داد که رطوبت بر خواص فیزیکی لوبیا قرمز شامل طول، عرض، ضخامت، قطر متوسط هندسی، قطر متوسط حسابی، سطح تصویر شده، حجم، چگالی توده، تخلخل، وزن هزار دانه و زاویه ی استقرار استاتیکی در سطح احتمال 1 درصد اثر معنی داری دارد. به طوری که با افزایش رطوبت از 54/7 به 12 درصد بر پایه خشک طول، عرض، ضخام...

Percutaneous & Mini Invasive Achilles tendon repair

Rupture of the Achilles tendon is a considerable cause of morbidity with reduced function following injury. Recent studies have shown little difference in outcome between the techniques of open and non-operative treatment using an early active rehabilitation programme. Meta-analyses have shown that non-operative management has increased risk of re-rupture whereas surgical intervention has risks...
