Advances in the Application of the Dual Fluoroscopic Imaging System in Sports Medicine: A Literature Review

Abstract

The dual fluoroscopic imaging system (DFIS) is a new non-invasive motion analysis system that does not interfere with movement, has high precision and repeatability and is not affected by the errors caused by the relative movement of skin and soft tissues. DFIS has been recently used in the field of sports medicine. This narrative review focuses on relevant literature on the origin, development and mechanism of action of DFIS and summarises the application of DFIS in injury and rehabilitation treatment, such as the reliability of test results; the position relationships of bony structures in the shoulder, lumbar spine, knee joint and ankle joint during exercise and its six degree-of-freedom (6DOF) movement to calculate cartilage deformation, contact area/trajectory and ligament strain. This article puts forward the problems encountered in practice that need to be solved and looks forward to the future applications of DFIS in the field of sports, especially in injury prevention and treatment.

Sports Medicine Image Modeling for Injury Prevention in Basketball Training

“…As a competitive confrontational sports, the probability of basketball injury in the process of sports began to increase year by year. To a large extent, it hindered the development of the Chinese basketball level [1]. In recent years, Manca et al believed that university basketball players' conditions, including physical quality, physical strength, height, and weight, were better than those of previous years.…”
