CHARACTERISTICS OF THE THICKNESS OF 3D MODELS OF THE HUMAN KNEE JOINT MENISCI

Abstract

The aim of the study was to compare the thickness of different parts of the meniscus of the right and left knee joints.
Material and methods. Thirty 3D models of meniscus from amputated lower limbs of elderly individuals were analyzed. Menisci without visual damage were included in the study. Morphometric parameters were determined on a 3D model of meniscus obtained by scanning on a 3D scanner (RangeVision Spectrum, Russia) with subsequent measurement of the thickness of the body and horns along the outer contour of the meniscus in Blender 4.3. Statistical processing was performed in IBM SPSS Statistics 22.
Results. Linear dimensions of the lateral and medial meniscus of both knee joints were obtained. Comparison of the thickness values of the same parts of the lateral and medial meniscus within each knee joint, as well as with the same meniscus of the contralateral sides, did not reveal statistically significant differences (p> 0.05). A statistically significant difference was found between the posterior horn and the body of the meniscus (p=0.006) in favor of the posterior horn when comparing the thickness of the medial meniscus of the left knee joint.
Conclusions. The data we obtained indicate heterogeneity in the thickness of both the medial and lateral meniscus along the outer contour in all its parts.
