Abstract
Objectives: The aim of this study was to develop an optical system to measure damaged cartilage thickness in-vivo and real time using an optical fiber probe and conducting ex-vivo elastic light-scattering spectroscopy experiments on different thicknesses of damaged calf's patella cartilage.
