OpenSim is an open-source software package for simulating the movement of
humans and animals.  NMSBuilder is a user-friendly, freely available
software for processing biomedical data and developing OpenSim
musculoskeletal models from subject-specific data. 

 

The webinar will demonstrate the capabilities of the NMSBuilder software
through a case study that generates OpenSim models from anatomical
surfaces segmented from lower-limb MRI.  Specifically, participants will
learn how NMSBuilder can be used to:

.        Integrate and edit medical images and geometric data

.        Create and modify model components of the musuloskeletal system
(e.g., bones, joints, muscles)

.        Generate OpenSim's xml model file from subject-specific data
