The knee plays an important role in human locomotion activities and daily performance. However, the knee joint often suffers from different inflammations and impact trauma such as osteoarthritis, tears of meniscus, and cartilage disorders. Vibration arthrometry is a noninvasive technique which has high potential for ffective detection of knee pathology in routine examinations. This book provides a systematical description on the vibroarthrograpy methodology, along with the recent advances in vibroarthrographic signal preprocessing, feature analysis, and pattern classification. The overall context of the book is composed of five chapters.
Signal Acquisition and Preprocessing
Signal Analysis
Feature Computing and Signal Classifications
