Mechanical Response Tissue Analysis: Inter- and Intra-trial Reliability in Assessing Bending Stiffness of the Human Tibia in College Aged Women

Mechanical Response Tissue Analysis: Inter- and Intra-trial Reliability in Assessing Bending Stiffness of the Human Tibia in College Aged Women

Mechanical Response Tissue Analysis (MRTA) is an emerging technology for assessing maximal bending stiffness (EI) of human long bones in vivo. The MRTA variable, EI, is the product of Young's modulus of elasticity (E) and cross-sectional moment of inertia (I). EI quantifies material and archite...
