IORFoot Tutorial Original

This tutorial has been updated to match the naming convention used in the 2007 IOR foot paper. The MODIFIED tutorial can be found here.

In 2014, updates to the IOR foot model were published. The 2014 tutorial can be found here.

Visual3D is a general tool capable of implementing many different foot models.

This tutorial focuses on the multi-segment foot model as described in the following article:

Below is a tutorial demonstrating how this is done in Visual3D. If you would rather see a fully completed model you can simply download the following file [blank] and open it in Visual3D.

Multi-Segment Foot Marker Set

CA(FCC) ^{:p. 160} = Posterior Surface of Calcaneus

ST(FST) = Sustentaculum Tali of Calcaneus

PT(FPT) = Lateral apex of the peroneal tubercle

TN (FNT) = Medial apex of the tuberosity navicular.

FMH(FM1) = Head of 1st Metatarsus

SMH(FM2) = Head of 2nd Metatarsus

VMH(FM5) = Head of 5th Metatarsus

VMB(FMT) = Tuberosity of 5th Metatarsal

PM(PM6) = Proximal Medial Phalanx

FMB = Base of First Metatarsal

SMB = Base of Second Metatarsal

Download and open the c3d files in Visual3D

Download the zip file IORfoot_Tutorial.zip containing the .c3d files.

Unzip this file in a location of your choice.

From the File menu select Open.

From the "Open the movement trial" dialog navigate to the files you downloaded and select the file labeled IORfoot_Walk1.c3d, IORfoot_Walk2.c3d and IORfoot_Walk3.c3d. Click Open.

Note: If you would like to perform your own motion capture for this model, here is a list of the marker names in this file: LFM_MARKERS.txt

Create a hybrid model - From the Model menu open Create (Add Static Calibration File) and select Visual3D Hybrid Model.

Load the standing trial - From the "Select the calibration file for the new model" dialog box select the file labeled IORfoot_Static1.c3d and click Open.

Assign the model to the movement trial - When the "Assign Models to Motion Data" window opens select the movement files IORfoot_Walk1.c3d, IORfoot_Walk2.c3d and IORfoot_Walk3.c3d and click OK.

Visual3D will automatically open the Model Builder mode and your screen should look like the image below.

Creating the landmarks

The Leardini Foot Model is built using landmarks and motion capture markers. Landmarks are defined relative to motion capture markers, other landmarks, or to existing segment coordinate systems.

Note: As you go through this exercise, you will notice that the marker names in our example are slightly different than those shown above.

Computing Planar Angles

The IOR multi-segment foot model also offers a method to measure foot planar/anatomical angles, often measured through static load-bearing radiograms. In this case, these angles can also be measure dynamically. As per Leardini (2007) , here a list of the different angles computed using this foot model:

F2Pt = angle between the projections of the line segments FMH-PM and FMB-FMH into the transverse plane of the metatarsus, positive angle with the former rotating laterally with respect to the latter, i.e. motion in valgus of the first metatarsophalangeal joint.

S2F = angle between the projections of the line segments FMB-FMH and SMB-SMH into the transverse plane of the metatarsus, positive angle with the former rotating medially with respect to the latter.

S2V = angle between the projections of the line segments VMB-VMH and SMB-SMH into the transverse plane of the metatarsus, positive angle with the former rotating laterally with respect to the latter.

F2G = angle between the line segment FMB-FMH and the ground, i.e. in the plane orthogonal to the ground and containing FMB-FMH, positive angle with the downward rotation of the head.

S2G = angle between the line segment SMB-SMH and the ground, positive angle with the downward rotation of the head.

V2G = angle between the line segments VMB-VMH and the ground, positive angle with the downward rotation of the head.

F2Ps = angle between the projections of the line segments FMH-PM and FMB-FMH into the sagittal plane of the metatarsus, positive angle with the former rotating upward, i.e. dorsiflexion of the first metatarso-phalangeal joint.

MLA = angle between the projections of the line segments CA-ST and ST-FMH into the sagittal plane of the foot, positive angle with clockwise rotation of the former toward the latter, i.e. navicular drop being positive. This would replicate somehow what is known in radiography as the Moreau and Costa Bertani angle. To make sure all three markers (CA, ST and FMH)are not colinear, it is recommended to use the CAB marker instead of the CA since the CAB is lower than the CA marker, ensuring the angle is more acute.





Within the pipeline Workshop window, under Signal Math, double-click (or highlight and click on the right-pointing double arrows) Compute_Plantar_Angle. Once the Compute_Plantar_Angle is transfered in the commands in Main pipeline window, click on Edit.
