In Vivo Verification of Different Hip Joint Center Estimation Methods in Gait Analysis For Healthy Subjects
Hip joint is one of the most stable joints in human body. It has intrinsic stability provided by its relatively rigid ball and socket configuration. The hip joint also has a wide range of motion, which allows normal locomotion and daily activities. Location of hip joint center (HJC) is an important...

Summary: | Hip joint is one of the most stable joints in human body. It has intrinsic stability provided by its relatively rigid ball and socket configuration. The hip joint also has a wide range of motion, which allows normal locomotion and daily activities. Location of hip joint center (HJC) is an important parameter in gait analysis, biomechanical and clinical research laboratories to calculate human lower extremity kinematics and kinetics. Inaccuracies in estimation of hip joint center are shown to propagate errors in kinematic and kinetic calculations of lower extremities |
