Abstract

The article discusses research which investigated how competition level, type of sport, and athlete's sex influence first-time noncontact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury incidence. Topics addressed include the prevalence of ACL injuries in young athletes in the U.S., the use of National Collegiate Athletic Association Injury Surveillance System database as reference in assessing injury incidence rates, and the injury rate associated with soccer, basketball, and lacrosse.

Abstract

The article discusses research which investigated femoral intercondylar notch morphometry in patients with first-time noncontact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. Topics explored include the use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data of participating ACL-injured patients, the outcome of the femoral notch measurement process, and the comparative analysis of femoral notch morphometry and ACL geometry.
