Invasive measurement of internal loads is either not possible at all, or is extremely difficult. A non-invasive method for use in the clinical setting might be the computer-aided simulation of a mechanical model. All the geometrical data required can be obtained, at a level of accuracy not previously attainable, with the aid of magnetic resonance imaging.
