Computer based upper extremity evaluation system
TL;DR: In this paper, an upper extremity evaluation system (20) includes a computer (24) and a directly connected three-dimensional position locator (32) which may be used by a therapist to enter data corresponding to the location of the flexed and extended joints of the hand, wrist and elbow.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lower extremity residual limb slippage within the prosthesis
TL;DR: Analysis of slippage within the prosthesis has been performed using a new experimental measurement method based on spiral x-ray computed tomography (SXCT) imaging that provides a feasible means for measuring residuum skin slipperage relative to the prostheses and skin deformation relative to tibia within an in situ prosthesis under load.
Journal ArticleDOI
Validity of multislice computerized tomography for diagnosis of maxillofacial fractures using an independent workstation.
Denise Takehana dos Santos,Adriana Paula Andrade Costa e Silva,Michael W. Vannier,Marcelo Gusmão Paraiso Cavalcanti +3 more
TL;DR: CT imaging demonstrated high specificity and sensitivity for maxillofacial fractures and the association of axial/MPR/3D-CT images added important information in relationship to other CT protocols.
Journal ArticleDOI
Musculoskeletal applications of three-dimensional surface reconstructions.
Michael W. Vannier,William G. Totty,W. G. Stevens,Paul M. Weeks,D. M. Dye,W. J. Daum,Louis A. Gilula,William A. Murphy,Robert H. Knapp +8 more
TL;DR: Computer programs originally developed for craniofacial surgical planning and evaluation are applied to complex musculoskeletal problems and can produce high-quality surface reconstructions from CT scan slices without operator intervention.
Journal ArticleDOI
Helical CT image noise—analytical results
Ge Wang,Michael W. Vannier +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that helical CT image noise deviation is independent of transaxial position, proportional to the raw projection noise deviation, and not affected by the fan angle (approximately for the HE method).
