Abstract

A method of tracking motion of a body part, the method comprising: (a) gathering motion data from a body part repositioned within a range of motion, the body part having mounted thereto a motion sensor; (b) gathering a plurality of radiographic images taken of the body part while the body part is in different positions within the range of motion, the plurality of radiographic images having the body part and the motion sensor within a field of view; and, (c) constructing a virtual three dimensional model of the body part from the plurality of radiographic images using a structure of the motion sensor identifiable within at least two of the plurality of radiographic images to calibrate the radiographic images.
