Comparison of Optimization Strategies for Musculoskeletal Modeling of the Wrist for Therapy Planning in Case of Total Wrist Arthroplasty

Life, 2022
The human wrist joint is an elegant mechanism. The wrist allows the positioning and orienting of the hand to the forearm. The computational modeling of the human hand, especially of the wrist joint, can reveal important information about biomechanical ...

Verification of the rehabilitation effect for wrist contracture by dynamic analysis of carpals

Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2015
Distal radius bone fracture is major disease for elderly people. As its cure needs fixing the wrist for long time, the wrist often stiffens up and the range of its motion tends to be restricted, which is generally called “contracture”. As the contracture

A three-dimensional finite element model of maximal grip loading in the human wrist [PDF]

, 2009
The aim of this work was to create an anatomically accurate three-dimensional finite element model of the wrist, applying subject-specific loading and quantifying the internal load transfer through the joint during maximal grip.

Clinical significance of quantitative bone SPECT/CT in the evaluation of hand and wrist pain in patients with rheumatic disease

Scientific Reports, 2022
We investigated the diagnostic value of the maximum standardized uptake value (SUV) at hand and wrist joints for differentiating rheumatic diseases via bone single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/computed tomography (CT).

Successful joint preservation of distal radius osteosarcoma by en bloc tumor excision and reconstruction using a tumor bearing frozen autograft: a case report

BMC Surgery, 2018
Background The wrist joint is an extremely rare site for osteosarcoma. Joint structure preservation to maintain good limb function is well described in case of knee osteosarcoma, whereas it is not described in case of wrist joint osteosarcoma.

Robot-Aided Mapping of Wrist Proprioceptive Acuity across a 3D Workspace. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Proprioceptive signals from peripheral mechanoreceptors form the basis for bodily perception and are known to be essential for motor control. However we still have an incomplete understanding of how proprioception differs between joints, whether it ...
