Abstract

Biomechanical studies of the spine require data on the weight supported by each body segment studied. The Barycentremetre, a gamma ray scanner, provides in vivo measurements. Barycentremetre measurements and full spine radiographs with a single reference system, were used to measure the weights of the arms and the remaining body weight supported by each anatomical level of 17 men and 11 women.
