Abstract

The simple and relatively non-traumatic method of attaching the sensor to the scapular for chronic recording the scapula movements with magnetic tracking device is presented. During experiment the sensor fixed to the skin with the nylon thread passing through the m. deltoideus in the middle part of the scapula. This method provided stable recording of the scapular movements, shown in four dogs with previously learned coordination of head and forelimb movements.
