Schematic illustration of the custom jig setup. (a) In the surgical neck model, two FiberWires represent the two heads of the pectoralis major muscle. (b) In the greater tuberosity model, two FiberWires represent the supraspinatus and infraspinatus muscles. All FiberWires were connected to the digital force gauges along their respective anatomic force vectors).
