 **Note:** Minor changes were made to the recommendation to facilitate its implementation in Visual3D and for consistency with other commonly used coordinate systems. Users are encouraged to adapt these to their own needs and requirements. The following should mainly be used as a starting point, and not as the only way to define the Thorax segment. **Note:** Minor changes were made to the recommendation to facilitate its implementation in Visual3D and for consistency with other commonly used coordinate systems.

 Placing the proximal end of the thorax/ab segment at the pelvis essentially places two proximal ends together (e.g. the Thorax/Ab and Pelvis), but now the distal end of the Thorax/Ab segment is at the shoulders, which allows the creation of shoulder and neck joints (e.g. the arms and head are considered distal segments of the body). Placing the proximal end of the thorax/ab segment at the pelvis essentially places two proximal ends together (e.g. the Thorax/Ab and Pelvis), but now the distal end of the Thorax/Ab segment is at the shoulders, which allows the creation of shoulder and neck joints (e.g. the arms and head are considered distal segments of the body).
