Abstract:Cadaveric joint simulators are commonly used to explore native and pathological joint function as well as to test medical devices. Recently, robotic manipulators have been proposed as a new gold standard for in vitro biomechanical testing as they offer higher possibilities than Universal Testing Machines in terms of degrees of freedom (DOF). However, current protocols remain conducted in extra-corporal conditions by fixing one segment of a diarthrodial joint while mobilising the other segment. Moreover, induce… Show more
