The effect of landmarks and bone motion on posture-related changes in carpal tunnel volume

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Deviated wrist postures have been linked to carpal tunnel syndrome development, yet the effect of posture on carpal tunnel volume remains unclear. The purposes of this study were (i) to evaluate the effect of boundary definitions on tunnel volume estimates in neutral and non-neutral (30 degrees flexion, 30 degrees extension) wrist postures and (ii) to develop a biomechanical wrist simulation to predict posture-related changes in …
