Background: Variations observed in biomechanical studies might be attributed to errors made by operators during the construction of musculoskeletal models, rather than being solely attributed to patient-specific geometry.
Research Question: What is the impact of operator errors on the construction of musculoskeletal models, and how does it affect the estimation of muscle moment arms and hip joint reaction forces?
Methods: Thirteen independent operators participated in defining the muscle model, while a single operator performed 13 repetitions to define the muscle model based on 3D bone geometry. For each model, the muscle moment arms relative to the hip joint center of rotation was evaluated.
