| A quantitative and standardized description of the variations of the proximal carpal bones and radius and ulna is made using a statistical shape model. 15000 corresponding points on all registered bone surfaces are automatically established by subsampling the segmented bone surfaces (van de Giessen et al., 2009). Using principal component analysis (PCA), multidimensional variations are described that are present in both the spastic wrist and the contra-lateral (non-spastic) wrist By studying the distributions of the parameters that specify these variations, we can describe the prevalence of certain shape variants and detect shape differences between the spastic and contra-lateral wrist. | — |
