Abstract

This new method offers dynamic recording capabilities and a measurement error comparable with stereo radiographic methods. Repetitive ranging experiments are highly reproducible. The range of motion for axial rotation seems overestimated in previous cadaveric studies. Coupling patterns show large variations between individuals.
