For too long, biomechanical research workers and clinicians have been considering the same problems, but looking at them from different viewpoints and failing to make use of each other's knowledge and skill. This book integrates these two areas, showing researchers how to keep their work clinically relevant while demonstrating the value of modern methods of measurement in clinical practice. The contributors, all leaders in one or both of these fields, cover fracture management, shape measurement, soft tissues and the spine, ...

For too long, biomechanical research workers and clinicians have been considering the same problems, but looking at them from different viewpoints and failing to make use of each other's knowledge and skill. This book integrates these two areas, showing researchers how to keep their work clinically relevant while demonstrating the value of modern methods of measurement in clinical practice. The contributors, all leaders in one or both of these fields, cover fracture management, shape measurement, soft tissues and the spine, and the upper and lower limbs. This book will be of great interest to bioengineers engaged in research or clinical work, rehabilitation engineers, orthopedic surgeons, and clinicians specializing in orthopedics, rheumatology, and rehabilitation.
