IEEE Journal of Translational Engineering in Health and Medicine's unique aim is to publish original work in the intersection of engineering and clinical translation. The journal's focus is interdisciplinary collaborations between researchers, healthcare providers, and industry and aims to publish results and best practices from these translational efforts.
Caroline Lucena received her MSc degree (2015) in Systems Engineering at University of Pernambuco (UPE) and her BSc degree in Speech Therapy at Federal University of Pernambuco (UFPE). She has been working on different research projects since 2008, being part of the Pathophysiology of the Stomatognathic System Research Group (UFPE) and the Computational Intelligence Research Group (UPE). Her latest research projects involve the application of biosensors and computational intelligence techniques to the evaluation and analysis of the jaw’s biomechanics and to the development of diagnose support systems. Also, she acted as teaching assistant at the University of Pernambuco for one year, during her masters.
Abstract
There is a direct relationship between the prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders of the temporomandibular joint and orofacial disorders. A well-elaborated analysis of the jaw movements provides relevant information for healthcare professionals to conclude their diagnosis. Different approaches have been explored...
