Abstract :
Diagnosis of soft-tissue injuries (STIs) in occupational medicine using wireless technology will be cost effective and will improve the assessment outcomes. This article provides an overview of the design and clinical motivation for a novel system implementation using the sensing health with intelligence, modularity mobility and experimental reusability (Shimmer) platform.
