Abstract
A reduced range of motion on the affected side suggests the breast cancer population had less varied movement strategies, keeping movements in narrower ranges to avoid disability, pain, or subacromial impingement. This investigation produced an unprecedentedly diverse collection of three-dimensional humerothoracic and scapulothoracic kinematics for a breast cancer population. Documentation of physical capability, dysfunction, and adaptive strategies is a crucial step towards developing targeted strategies for enhancing functional recovery in breast cancer survivors.
