'''Data Location:'''

'''Protocol Deviations:'''

 1. Femur registration markers were assembled medially, laterally, and posteriorly (rather than anteriorly or anteromedially). Registration marker probing order was also changed to lateral, medial, posterior. Tibia registration markers were assembled per the specification. Probing order is the same as the specification: lateral medial posterior.
 1. Ten points (not twelve) were collected on each registration marker. The specifications may need to change as per Robb this has been how the system was set up all the time.
'''Notes:'''

 1. Dissected and keeping skin-fat-muscle layers from thigh and shank.
 1. Patella Optotrak marker needed to be replaced. Probing of patella registration marker was repeated for this reason.

 . Specimen Placement in Transportation Fixture: 8:30 AM - 9:00 AM December 2, 2014
 . Imaging: ~9:45 AM - ~11:30 AM December 2, 2014

'''Data Location:'''

Data was received from the imaging facilities and uploaded to in-house data management server (http://cobicore.lerner.ccf.org/midas; only accessible within Cleveland Clinic network). Raw DICOM files were stored in the folder Open Knee(s) --> Private --> oks003 --> MRI --> DICOM

DICOM files were converted to NIfTI files, stored in the folder Open Knee(s) --> Private --> oks003 --> MRI --> NIFTI of the in-house data management server. NIfTI files were also disseminated to the public in the 'Downloads' section of the project website, https://simtk.org/home/openknee, under the package oks003.

Data storage and dissemination were accomplished based on the updated imaging specifications, see [[http://wiki.simtk.org/openknee/Specifications/ExperimentationAnatomicalImaging?action=recall&rev=118|Revision as of April 16, 2015]].

'''Protocol Deviations:'''

 1. None.
'''Notes:'''

 1. To be able to identify where the patella is after the specimen is in the opaque bag, a double sided tape was secured to connect the transportation fixture to the bag. This helps orienting the specimen better in the MRI.

'''Data Location:'''

Data was received from the robotics testing facility and uploaded to in-house data management server (http://cobicore.lerner.ccf.org/midas; only accessible within Cleveland Clinic network). Zipped folders were stored in the folder Open Knee(s) --> Private --> oks003 --> !JointMechanics under relevant joint related folders.

Zipped folders were extracted and organized in the dissemination folder under Open Knee(s) --> Private --> oks003 --> !JointMechanics --> DISSEMINATION of the in-house data management server. DISSEMINATION folder was downloaded and disseminated to the public in the 'Downloads' section of the project website, https://simtk.org/home/openknee, under the package oks003.

Data storage and dissemination were accomplished based on the updated joint mechanics testing specifications, see [[http://wiki.simtk.org/openknee/Specifications/ExperimentationJointMechanics?action=recall&rev=102|Revision as of October 13, 2015]].

'''Protocol Deviations:'''

 1. None.
'''Notes:'''

 1. In tibiofemoral joint testing, passive flexion (for coordinate system optimization) was conducted at 50 N compressive load. Specifications state a 100 N compressive load should be used. Nonetheless, as noted by Tara, all previous specimens has been tested under 50 N compressive load for coordinate system optimization. The relevant protocol may need to be updated this.
 1. In tibiofemoral joint testing, robotic testing of combined loading at 90 degrees flexion ended prematurely. An additional trial was conducted to complete the tests.
 1. In patellofemoral joint testing, a coordinate system transformation matrix in !SimVitro (the matrix that establishes the relationship between the tibia and load cell) needed to be mirrored to accommodate the left knee.
 1. In patellofemoral joint testing, at 0 degrees flexion multiple trials were collected for 20, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500 N quadriceps loading. This was necessitated by troubleshooting tendon freeze clamping and tendon actuator response.
 1. Version of simVITRO software used was unreleased revision 3024 of the repository. The files can be found in svn://dev.lerner.ccf.org/data1/svn/repos/colbrunn-svn/Projects/Numbered Projects/2013CB-031 Open Knee/Original simVITRO-Tested on oks001 oks002 oks003 oks004

'''Data Location:'''

'''Protocol Deviations:'''

 1. Due to delay in patellofemoral joint testing, tissue dissection was not completed on the same day; all ligament, tendon, menisci segments were dissected and frozen. Bone and cartilage were kept in the fridge another night for dissection in the following morning.
'''Notes:'''

 1. Various secondary tissues were dissected and stored: semitendinosus, patellofemoral ligament (medial and lateral), lateral tibiofemoral capsule, fat bursa, transverse ligament.
