Using an Impact Hammer to Estimate Elastic Modulus and Thickness of a Sample During an Osteotomy
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Performing an osteotomy with a surgical mallet and an osteotome is a delicate intervention mostly based on the surgeon proprioception. It remains difficult to assess the properties of bone tissue being osteotomized. ...
In Vitro Evaluation of the Acetabular Cup Primary Stability by Impact Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The implant primary stability of the acetabular cup (AC) is an important parameter for the surgical success of pressfit procedures used for the insertion of cementless hip prostheses. In previous studies by our group ...
An Instrumented Hammer to Detect the Bone Transitions During an High Tibial Osteotomy: An Animal Study
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: High tibial osteotomy is a common procedure for knee osteoarthritis during which the surgeon partially opens the tibia and must stop impacting when cortical bone is reached by the osteotome. Surgeons rely on their ...
Multimodal Evaluation of the Spatiotemporal Variations of Periprosthetic Bone Properties
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Titanium implants are widely used in dental and orthopedic surgeries. However, implant failures still occur because of a lack of implant stability. The biomechanical properties of bone tissue located around the implant ...
