Biomechanical models of the finger in the sagittal plane

Finger movements in the sagittal plane mainly consist of flexion and extension about the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) and proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joints. The purpose of this study was to develop a biomedical finger model and to validate it by comparing finger strength and muscular forces in sta...
