Purpose: Techniques have been developed very recently with which it is possible to quantify
accurately in vivo 3-dimensional (3-D) carpal kinematics. The aim of this study was to …

Background: Wrist motion is dependent on the complex articulations of the scaphoid and
lunate at the radiocarpal joint. However, much of what is known about the radiocarpal joint is …

Scapholunate (SL) instability is the most common dissociative carpal instability condition. It
is the most frequent cause of wrist osteoarthritis, defined as scapholunate advanced …

Kinematic analysis has shown a near-stationary proximal carpal row during the dart-
thrower's motion, which is believed to provide a stable platform for the generation of force …

Objective. The purpose of this study was to accurately quantify three-dimensional in vivo
kinematics of all carpal bones in flexion and extension and radial and ulnar deviation …

Accurate quantification of subtle wrist motion changes resulting from ligament injuries is
crucial for diagnosis and prescription of the most effective interventions for preventing …

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to obtain qualitative and quantitative information
regarding in vivo 3-dimensional (3D) kinematics of the midcarpal joint during wrist …

A three-dimensional developmental finite element model has been created to analyze load
transmission pathways in the constrained carpus during static compressive loading. The …

The skeletal wrist consists of eight small, intricately shaped carpal bones. The motion of
these bones is complex, occurs in three dimensions, and remains incompletely defined. Our …

PURPOSE: To assess the influence of lunate type on scaphoid kinematics. METHODS: One
hundred normal wrists had fluoroscopic assessment of the wrist in maximal radial, neutral …
