Description

Dynamic Knee Model

A dynamic knee model—created with attention to anatomical accuracy.

Anatomical details include: left knee, partial femur, partial tibia and fibula, hyaline cartilage, medial meniscus, lateral meniscus, anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), medial collateral ligament (MCL), lateral collateral including the anterolateral ligament (ALL) and the fibular collateral ligament (FCL) and the interosseous tibia-fibula membrane (textured for grip). Optional blue menisci and radial tear.
