Muskejo is the world's first musculoskeletal model capable of biomechanical analysis at the joint tissue level.
Based on the musculoskeletal model Muskejo, it is possible to calculate the joint tissue level (primary and secondary joint movements, joint contact pressure, contact area, stress on soft tissues such as cartilage) from the muscle level (muscle strength) during walking. This can contribute to high-precision patient-specific diagnosis and evaluation of the knee joint.

basic information
Muskejo (Musculo-skeletal-joint) enables kinematic and dynamic calculations such as joint angles, joint moments, and muscle forces by combining a motion capture system with force plates. Furthermore, it allows for biomechanical analysis at the joint and soft tissue level, including joint accessory movements (such as internal/external rotation, varus/valgus, and translation), joint contact mechanics (such as contact pressure, contact area, and soft tissue stress), and ligament forces. Conventional musculoskeletal models represent bones as rigid bodies and joints as mechanical axes in a rigid link system, allowing for biomechanical analysis at the body level, but they cannot perform biomechanical analysis at the joint tissue level. Muskejo is the world's first musculoskeletal model (also referred to as a muscle-skeletal-joint model) that can conduct biomechanical analysis at the joint tissue level, taking into account the physiological interactions between muscle activity in vivo, joint tissue deformation, and the accompanying joint movements (unique technology: concurrent analysis).
