Vibroarthography of the Knee Joint: A Comprehensive Gui-Based Analysis of Soft Tissue Damage (original) (raw)

Bone Joint Journal Orthopaedic Proceedings Supplement, 2013

Abstract

IntroductionThe low-cost, no-harm conditions associated with vibroarthography, the study of listening to the vibrations and sound patterns of interaction at the human joints, has made this method a promising tool for diagnosing joint pathologies. This current study focuses on the knee joint and aims to synchronize computational models with vibroarthographic signals via a comprehensive graphical user interface (GUI) to find correlations between kinematics, vibration signals, and joint pathologies. This GUI is the first of its kind to synchronize computational models with vibroarthographic signals and gives researchers a new advantage of analyzing kinematics, vibration signals, and pathologies simultaneously in an easy-to-use software environment.MethodsThe GUI (Figure 1) has the option to view live or previously captured fluoroscopic videos, the corresponding computational model, and/or the pre- or post-processed vibration signals. Having more than one signal axes available allows for comparison of differe...
