Soft tissue cross sectional area measurement system

Measurement of the cross-sectional area (CSA) of biological specimens is a primary concern for many biomechanical tests. The tendon has irregular shape and geometry, making measurement and determination of the CSA of the tendons difficult. Problems associated include damage to the structure, inaccur...
