Data from: Non-invasive Assessment of Cartilage Damage of the Human Knee using Acoustic Emission Monitoring: a Pilot Cadaver Study

This dataset accompanies the following article: "Non-invasive Assessment of Cartilage Damage of the Human Knee using Acoustic Emission Monitoring: a Pilot Cadaver Study," in IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, doi: 10.1109/TBME.2023.3263388.

Knee acoustic emissions (AE) recorded in the 100-450 kHz and 15-200kHz frequency ranges from a cadaver specimen knee in flexion/extension. Four stages of artificially inflicted cartilage damage and two sensor positions were investigated. 

Stages of artificially inflicted cartilage damage: the cartilage surface damage on the medial compartment, KL III; the cartilage surface damage on the medial compartment plus patellofemoral surface, KL III; the cartilage surface damage on the medial compartment plus on the patellofemoral surface KL IV; the cartilage surface damage on the medial compartment plus on the patellofemoral surface and lateral compartment.

Sensor positions: medial and lateral  knee
