Popis: Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) typically exhibits non-linear stress-strain characteristics related to its fibers behavior and distribution, which intrinsically define its functional properties. Aim of this study was to design and test a dedicated setup able to acquire the volumetric fibrous microstructure in ACL samples, under increasing mechanical strain, thus to obtain useful information for the definition of an optimal graft to be used during its reconstruction.
