In recent years, the use of inertial measurement unit (IMU)-based motion capture (Mocap)
systems in rehabilitation has grown significantly. This paper aimed to provide an overview of …

Background: Frequent use of mobile devices has a known association with musculoskeletal
neck pain. This study sought out to localize the region with greatest flexion in the cervical …

Inertial measurement units (IMUs) offer a portable and inexpensive alternative to traditional
optical motion capture systems, and have potential to support clinical diagnosis and …

Our aims were to identify potential differences in muscle mechanical properties (MMPs) of
cervical and lumbar tissues and in spinal range of motion (ROM) between patients with …

In recent times, widely understood spine diseases have advanced to one of the most urgetn
problems where quick diagnosis and treatment are needed. To diagnose its specifics (eg to …

Objective Biomechanics represents the common final output through which all
biopsychosocial constructs of back pain must pass, making it a rich target for phenoty** …

Clinical assessment of spinal impairment in Axial Spondyloarthritis is currently performed
using the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Metrological Index (BASMI). Despite being …

Different musculoskeletal disorders are a source of pain in the spinal region; most of them
can be divided into mechanical, such as low back pain (LBP), or inflammatory origins, as is …

Background Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) can lead to spinal mobility restrictions
associated with restricted lower limb ranges of motion, thoracic kyphosis, spinopelvic …

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the reliability of wearable inertial motion unit
(IMU) sensors in measuring spinal range of motion under supervised and unsupervised …
