IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 2023 Human finger joints are conventionally simplified as rigid joints in robotic hand design and biomechanical hand modelling, due to their anatomic and morphologic complexity. However, our understanding of the effect of the finger joint configuration on the

Biomechanical Study of Extensor Tendon Lacerations Over the Finger Metacarpophalangeal Joints
Journal of Hand Surgery Global Online, 2019 Purpose: To assess the percentages of extensor tendon lacerations over the finger metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints that may lead to an MCP joint extensor lag. Methods: We obtained 8t fresh-frozen cadaveric hand specimens.

A comparative study on water and dry coupling in photoacoustic tomography of the finger joints [PDF]
Journal of Innovative Optical Health Sciences, 2020 We present a systematical study on comparison between water and dry coupling in photoacoustic tomography of the human finger joints. Compared to the direct water immersion of the finger for water coupling, the dry coupling is realized through a ...
