The headings indicate the side and anatomical parts for comparison. The row headers (vertical headers) designate classes (e.g., ACLT, medial, etc.) for both the row and column. The control samples are not designated to the ACLT and contralateral headings. For example, the first (top left) box compares the medial control menisci and the medial ACLT 3-week menisci. The patella does not possess a medial or lateral side, therefore only the ACLT and contralateral headers pertain to the patella values.
