Femoral residuum/socket kinematics using fusion between 3D motion capture and stereo radiography

Abstract

Measurement of femur motion relative to the socket in gait in TF amputated patients can be a good indicator of prosthesis outcome. Our model, using low dose bi- planar radiography and motion capture, gives a prediction of femur motion (AA, EF, IER) in line with the sparse results found in the literature.
