overview of modifications made
to this site and the listed data files
The data
base consists of three sections: the VU-study, the Mayo-study and the Leiden
study. Each section comprises an introduction - link and links to the individual
data files. Not all data are available yet. Please feel free to send us your
reactions or questions about available or unlisted data.

Anatomical
landmarks |
(both left and right shoulders) |
| Ligaments |
Origins and insertions for the conoid and trapezoid
ligaments expressed in the global coordinate system. Note: the length of
each ligament is not actually known and it is likely that some were buckled
when measured. |

specimen_r2
: this data file is a combination of the data from specimen r2 of
the VU study and k4 of the Mayo study. In general, al shoulder data stem
from r2, whereas all elbow data are from k4. This file is the latest version of the parameter file used by the Delft shoulder model. It comprises all known corrections to the original data. |
