Most current elastography methods remain qualitative or display only strain information due to the inexact internal stress distribution. A more accurate result may be obtained by employing force sensors to gauge the applied vertical compression force on skin surface through the ultrasound transducer. A computationally efficient superposition algorithm based on Love's closed-form equation (SLE) is...
Daily volume loss of the residual limp is reported as one of the greatest challenges in socket fitting. Assisted vacuum socket systems were developed to prevent stump's volume loss and maintain sufficient socket fit. There is however very little quantitative biomechanical research for the evaluation of below knee sockets with assisted vacuum systems. Highly accurate in-vivo measurements became recently...
Several methods have been proposed to simulate large breast compressions such as those occurring during X-ray mammography. However evaluation of these methods against real data is rare. We acquired magnetic resonance images of eleven breasts before and after applying a relatively large in-vivo compression in the medial direction. Using non-rigid registration we observed an anisotropic deformation...
The purpose of this paper is to present the newly founded European research project MIMICS. The hypothesis of this project is that movement training for neurorehabilitation can be substantially improved through immersive and multimodal sensory feedback. The approach is real-time acquisition of behavioral and physiological data from patients and the use of this to adaptively and dynamically change...
