Prediction of Individual Knee Kinematics From an MRI Representation of the Articular Surfaces

Conclusion: The proposed approach allows the prediction of individual joint motion based on non-ionizing MRI data. Significance: This method may help to characterize healthy and, by comparison, pathological knee behavior. Moreover, it may provide an individual reference motion for the personalization of musculoskeletal models, opening the way to their clinical application.
