Measuring Neck Morphologies Using Upright Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Variations in muscle morphologies have implications in spinal load-sharing patterns under different types of loadings: pure sagittal, pure coronal, and combined/oblique loading modes, and high-g forces. These data can be used as a first step in computational modeling to quantify segmental forces, moments, and local stress-strain patterns in spinal components (discs, facet joints, and ligaments) and are applicable to military subjects and military loading scenarios.
