The PEL-38 Electronic Podometer for static and dynamic analysis of foot biomechanics.

The PEL-38 Podometer is a practical computer system for the analysis of foot function. Designed, tested and used at leading medical centers on the European continent, it has been introduced in the United States by Physical Support Systems (6 Ledge Road, Windham NH 03087; 1-800-222-5009). The PEL-38 Podometer measures, records, and graphically analyzes foot pressure distribution in both static and dynamic modes.

The Vector System for dynamic gait analysis.

This article explores dynamic versus static biomechanics, quantitative versus qualitative data, and practical uses in a clinical setting for the Vector System of gait analysis. This system uses a video camera connected to a computer to analyze gait.

Biomechanical Phenomena

Preoperative planning for hallux valgus bunion surgery: photonics versus templates.

Photonic techniques such as CAD can now be applied to foot and ankle surgery for preoperative planning. Perhaps "CAS" (computer-aided surgery) or "surgitecture" would be more appropriate terms for our field and application. Achievements in this new frontier depend on present and future generations of podiatrists who are willing to challenge themselves to explore the potential of photonics and to refine its capabilities.

Computer Graphics

Photonics.

This article discusses the integration of video, computers, imaging hardware/software, and radiographs for novel applications in podiatric medicine. The name given to integrated photo/electronic technologies is "photonics." Radiographic measurement, surgical planning, and static/dynamic biomechanical applications are described.

Biomechanical Phenomena

Clinical applications of biomechanics cinematography.

Biomechanics cinematography is the analysis of movement of living organisms through the use of cameras, image projection systems, electronic digitizers, and computers. This article is a comparison of cinematographic systems and details practical uses of the modality in research and education.
