HiRise: Enabling 3D Biomechanical Research for the Entire Lower Extremity
Dr. Cesar de Cesar Netto, MD, PhD, Co-Director of OFIRL, poses inside the CurveBeam HiRise.
CurveBeam Hosts Conversation with Iowa Researchers on New Lab Built Around Weight Bearing CT Imaging
The University of Iowa in Iowa City, Iowa, is a premier academic research institution. The Department of Orthopedics and Rehabilitation includes a a state-of-the-art Biomechanics Laboratory, while the Department of Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Science runs an advanced Orthopedic Gait Analysis Lab. The institution recently opened the Orthopedic Functional Imaging Research Laboratory (OFIRL), which is centered around weight bearing CT imaging. OFIRL is the first research lab in the world to utilize a CurveBeam HiRise weight bearing CT imaging system. The HiRise provides weight bearing 3D datasets of the entire lower extremity including hip & pelvis.
Join us live on March 31 at 11:30 a.m. ET, for a deep dive into how researchers across disciplines are harnessing the HiRise to advance their investigations.
