Arthrometer Insights

Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injuries are among the most common and debilitating injuries affecting athletes and active individuals. Accurate and timely diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment and rehabilitation. Traditional diagnostic methods, such as clinical examinations and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), have their limitations in terms of objectivity and reproducibility. This is where arthrometers come

Arthrometers are specialized medical devices used to assess ligament integrity, particularly the Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL), by measuring joint laxity. These tools are essential in orthopedic diagnostics, providing precise data that aid in diagnosing ligament injuries, planning surgeries, and monitoring postoperative recovery. Traditionally, manual arthrometers like the KT1000/KT2000, Rolimeter, Lachmeter, and Telos Stress Device have been

Knee ligament injuries, particularly those affecting the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), are prevalent in sports and active lifestyles, necessitating precise diagnostic tools for effective treatment planning and monitoring. Historically, the KT1000 and KT2000 knee ligament arthrometers have been the gold standards in ACL injury assessment, providing objective measurements of knee laxity and aiding clinicians in diagnosing ligamentous
