Figure 3

The results of case example 1. The ultrasound loop is modelled using the speckle tracking method (a) and the MACI method (b) and (c). Figure (a) illustrates the transversal displacement in the Achilles tendon of two subsequent passive dorsal flexion movements, Figure (b) illustrates the corresponding result of the same movement as a two-component PCA score plot (the second score vector, t2, against the first score vector, t1) and Figure (c) presents the result as distance to model (DModX) plotted against the frame number. Each turning point of the reference movement (a) is found in the corresponding frames at turning points in the PCA score plot (b) and as the best fitting observations in the DModX plot (c).
