Freeze drying and Lugol staining of human menisci reveal circumferential fibre volumes to guide meniscus implant design and virtual simulation

Abstract The knee menisci are essential for maintaining joint stability and load distribution, with circumferential collagen fibres playing a critical biomechanical role. Degenerative or traumatic injuries to the meniscus can require implants to restore function. This study aimed to develop a 3D-pri...
