The importance of evaluation of an orthopedic operation such as hip or knee arthroplasty has long been recognized. Many definitions of outcome and scoring questionnaires have been used in the past to assess the outcome of joint replacement. However, these ...
Two surgical treatments exist for ankle osteoarthritis (AO): ankle arthrodesis (AA) and total ankle replacement (TAR). Due to advantages and drawbacks of each treatment, decision making about these treatments is still a clinical question and thus, their ou ...
Collision detection among virtual objects is one of the main concerns in virtual reality and computer graphics. Usually the methods developed for collision detection are for either very general cases or very specific applications. The first main goal of th ...
In this work, a low-firing thick-film materials system allowing fabrication of piezoresistive sensors on surgical alloys is presented in detail, with application to a force-sensing surgical instrument. The system comprises a series of individual thick-film ...

This Ph.D thesis presents new paradigms in the field of segmentation by mean of deformable models. Classic model-based segmentation approach consists of iteratively deform complex models in the space of the scanner slices until the organ to segment is fitt ...
This study describes the validation of a new wearable system for assessment of 3D spatial parameters of gait. The new method is based on the detection of temporal parameters, coupled to optimized fusion and de-drifted integration of inertial signals. Compo ...
Objective: To investigate the correlation between objective and subjective evaluation of patients with total hip replacement. Design: Prospective preliminary trial comparing the Western Ontario and McMaster University questionnaire ( WOMAC) and gait analys ...
Tibial bone defect is a critical problem for revision knee arthroplasty. Instead of using metallic spacer or cement, biodegradable scaffolds could be an alternative solution. A numerical model of a revision knee arthroplasty was thus developed to estimate ...
The Orthopedic Research Laboratory at Radboud University Nijmegen (Prof. Nico Verdonschot) has developed a surgical technique based on bone graft impaction in case of revision total hip arthroplasty. During this development, in vitro mechanical tests have ...
The objective of the work presented here is to develop a low cost active knee prosthetic devices as real time embedded system which utilizes the available biological motor control circuit properly integrated with a Central Pattern Generator (CPG) aided con ...
