Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: For injured group- Inclusion criteria are i)-patients within 18 to 40 years of age; ii)-patients whose ACL injury is confirmed by some investigation or intervention at some point of time. For non-injured group- Inclusion criteria are i)-persons within 18 to 40 years of age. ii)- persons with no history of ACL injury.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: For injured group- Exclusion criteria are i) patients with direct contact injuries or high-energy violence injuries, such as car accident and falling accidents. ii) patients with bilateral knee joint injuries. iii) patients with uneven density on the intercondylar notch and articular surfaces, with condyle osteophyte formation on median and lateral femur as well as on tibial intercondylar eminence or with obvious degeneration of the knee joint. iv) patients with a past history of knee joint tuberculosis, suppurative arthritis, rheumatism or rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and other bony knee joint diseases. v) Patients with history of trauma to lower limb, with congenital deformity/obvious skeletal deformity of lower limb. For non-injured group- Exclusion criteria are- i)-persons with uneven density on the intercondylar notch and articular surfaces, with condyle osteophyte formation on median and lateral femur as well as on tibialintercondylareminence or with obvious degeneration of the knee joint. ii) persons with a past history of knee joint tuberculosis, suppurative arthritis, rheumatism or rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and other bony knee joint diseases. iii) Patients with history of trauma to lower limb, with congenital deformity/obvious skeletal deformity of lower limb.
