ABSTRACT:
A system for obtaining biomechanical data for the cervical spine of a subject is described. The system includes a display showing a figure representative of the subject. The figure may be displayed in substantially real time relative to the subject's movement The figure may be viewed from a selected one of a plurality of views.
