Maximum Intensity Projections (MIP) of a cadaveric specimen before [a coronal view, c sagittal view], and after [b coronal view, d sagittal view] a simulated pivot shift with loads of 100 N compression, 5 Nm internal rotation, 10 Nm valgus rotation, and 100 N anterior translation force at 0° flexion. The patella was digitally removed in post-processing in these images, for ease of viewing the joint capsule. Additional beads were also implanted into the lateral soft tissue structures but were analyzed as part of a subsequent study
