Functional analysis of anterior cruciate ligament braces
Abstract
Whether or not anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) braces work has been the subject of some debate. Research efforts undertaken to understand these braces have been divided into two fronts: static and functional analysis. This article explores those issues surrounding the functional analysis of ACL braces.
