Research Abstract

We have developed in vivo 3-dimensional motion analysis system, which enables for people to see 3-dimensional motion of living human joint and ligaments on computer. This system will be used clinically and educationally as a next generation image tool in Orthopaedics. We published 20 papers about kinematics of the MP joint, forearm malunion, rheumatoid wrist, scaphoid nonunion, and so on, and received 3 awards from domestic and international meetings.
