This study researches the clinical use of the musculoskeletal system evaluation with a computer simulation. Two fields are examined - patient evaluation and patient treatment. In the field of evaluation, the simulation is used to evaluates the prognosis of medical treatment. In the field of treatment, the simulation is used to decide the most suitable way to perform surgery using the quantitative evaluation about various cases of surgical results.
