Abstract

Background

The mechanism for noncontact anterior cruciate ligament injury is still a matter of controversy. Video analysis of injury tapes is the only method available to extract biomechanical information from actual anterior cruciate ligament injury cases. PURPOSE: This article describes 3-dimensional knee joint kinematics in anterior cruciate ligament injury situations using a model-based image-matching technique. STUDY DESIGN: Case series; Level of evidence, 4.

Methods

Ten anterior cruciate ligament injury video sequences from women's handball and basketball were analyzed using the model-based image-matching method.
