We investigated the motion of the foot and ankle bones from a series of static Weight Bearing CT (WBCT) scans, evaluating load related variation through principal component analysis (PCA). For the two investigated feet, unloaded motion can be explained with three synergies. When load is considered, a fourth synergy is needed. In both cases, all the bones participated to the overall foot motion. Synergies matched very well among the feet.

Abstract
We investigated the motion of the foot and ankle bones from a series of static Weight Bearing CT (WBCT) scans, evaluating load related variation through principal component analysis (PCA). For the two investigated feet, unloaded motion can be explained with three synergies. When load is considered, a fourth synergy is needed. In both cases, all the bones participated to the overall foot motion. Synergies matched very well among the feet.File in questo prodotto:
