Caption: Georgia Tech Ph.D. student Ashley Palmer conducted experiments to validate a new cartilage-imaging technique developed by Associate Professors Marc Levenston and Robert Guldberg in the Georgia Tech School of Mechanical Engineering. On the computer screen in the foreground is a thickness "map" of cartilage on a rabbit thigh bone generated using software associated with the new imaging technique called EPIC-microCT. On the other screen is an image showing results of EPIC-microCT scans on bovine cartilage samples at various stages of degradation.
