Subject-specific biomechanics influences tendon strains in patients with Achilles tendinopathy

Abstract The treatment of Achilles tendinopathy is challenging, as 40% of patients do not respond to existing rehabilitation protocols. These protocols neglect individual Achilles tendon (AT) characteristics, which are crucial for healing of the tendon tissue. Although prior studies suggest an optim...
