Dynamic surface topography data for assessing intra- and interindividual variation of vertebral motion.

ABSTRACT: Spinal function is substantially related to the motion of the particular vertebrae and the spine as a whole. For systematic assessment of individual motion, data sets are required which cover the kinematics comprehensively. Additionally, the data should enable a comparison of inter- and intraindividual variation of vertebral orientation in dedicated motion tasks like gait. For this purpose, this article provides surface topography (ST) data which were acquired while the individual test persons were walking on a treadmill at three different speed levels (2 km/h, 3 km/h, 4 km/h). In each recording, ten full walking cycles were included per test case to enable a detailed analysis of motion patterns. The provided data reflects asymptomatic and pain-free volunteers. Each data set contains the v
