Depth-dependent refractive index of normal and early degenerated articular cartilage

The depth distributions of refractive index (RI) in normal and early degenerated articular cartilage (AC) were measured and correlated to the pathological statuses. Utilizing a confocal microscope, the depth distribution of RI was determined with an interval of 50µm from the articular surface and ap...
