Three-dimensional dynamic in vivo motion of the cervical spine: assessment of measurement accuracy and preliminary findings
Abstract
BACKGROUND CONTEXT: Previous research has quantified cervical spine motion with conventional measurement techniques (eg, cadaveric studies, motion capture systems, and fluoroscopy), but these techniques were not designed to accurately measure three-dimensional (3D) dynamic cervical spine motion under in vivo conditions.
PURPOSE: The purposes of this study were to characterize the accuracy of model-based tracking for measuring 3D dynamic …
