Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Carpal kinematics are described by translation (in mm) and rotation (in degrees) during a period of time as the 4th dimension. From this study acquired information would able us to lay down the principles of a new non-invasive tool for detection of carpal instabilities that occur after ligament injury. We expect to find significant dynamic changes in patients with a ligament injury. From these changes most predictive parameters will be chosen to be used in our upcoming accuracy studies where the diagnostic value of 4D-RX will be determined.
