2D stiffness mapping for localizing osteoarthritic degenerated cartilage by using a fast indentation system based on fiber Bragg gratings

Published: Aug 28, 2019
Abstract
A fast indentation system for 2D stiffness mapping of cartilage is presented. The goal of this technique, which has the potential to be deployed endoscopically, is to localize and to distinguish between regions of healthy and degenerated cartilage. In the system presented here, forces are measured by a fiber Bragg grating (FBG), which is located at the end of a fiber optic indenter probe. This approach enables small indenter dimensions, which...
