Injuries to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) are increasingly
common. Every year, approximately 80,000 people rupture their ACL
in the United States alone. Of those, it is mostly the young and
active population that suffers the injury. This book provides an
overview of the psychological models of injury rehabilitation, the
role of coping with ACL injury and the role of social support.
Detailed discussions are included related to specific stages of
rehabilitation from ACL injury. Furthermore, to investigate the
subtle biomechanical changes in the knee following ACL deficiency
and reconstruction, both in vitro robotic testing systems and in
vivo imaging and computerised modelling techniques have been
employed and are examined.
