3D Morphometric and posture study of felid scapulae using statistical shape modelling.

3D Morphometric and posture study of felid scapulae using statistical shape modelling.

We present a three dimensional (3D) morphometric modelling study of the scapulae of Felidae, with a focus on the correlations between forelimb postures and extracted scapular shape variations. Our shape modelling results indicate that the scapular infraspinous fossa becomes larger and relatively bro...
