The custom fixture used for imaging. Two variations are shown, (a) with arm attachments and (b) with leg attachments. Each is fully adjustable to accommodate anatomical differences in a variety of specimens. The foot and hand were secured with Velcro, while the femoral and humeral heads were screwed in to a 3D printed receiver with nylon screws. All fixture materials were non-metal to reduce imaging artifacts in CT and MRI. Also shown are the instrumented ultrasound and Optotrak LED triads.
