Evaluation of Shoulder Integrity in Space: First Report of Musculoskeletal US on the International Space Station
Movie 1. The cabin video camera in the HRF shows the Expedition-9 crewmembers performing musculoskeletal US of the knee and patellar tendon. Positioning of the subject is facilitated by reduced gravity; however, attention to operator restraint is required to reduce fatigue and optimize the conduct of the examination.
Movie 2. Astronaut Mike Fincke performs a shoulder musculoskeletal US examination on cosmonaut Gennady Padalka. The flight-modified US screen (blue) and keyboard are seen between the subjects. Commander Padalka helped with the examinations by completing keyboard commands while the operator restrained himself in zero gravity.
Movie 3. The ISS crewmembers are seen in the HRF in front of the US device, preparing for a US examination. The crewmembers are heard discussing the submission of the rotator cuff article from space.
Movie 4. Astronaut Mike Fincke and cosmonaut Gennady Padalka switch positions while performing US examinations of the knee.
Audio 1. ISS transmission of the astronauts sharing the good news of the acceptance of their manuscript in Radiology.
