Dr. Bush and DO-PhD student Amber Vocelle worked with motion capture technology to examine the differences between a healthy hand and an arthritic hand. They evaluated three-dimensional, complex movements in order to compare the differences between hands. This could help diagnose arthritis sooner and prevent loss of thumb movement. Their most recent work was featured in MSU Osteopathic Medicine Newsletter.
