Joint modeling

Joint movement is a complex phenomenon involving bone shape, tissues such as cartilage that reside between bones, and ligaments and tendons that connect the bones.

My role in this project was to create surface models that could be adapted and compared across different subjects.

Funded in part by NSF grant "Manifolds and Lumigraphs" and NIH grant "Normal and Abnormal in vivo carpal bone motion", PI Joseph Trey Crisco, Rhode Island Hospital.
