MUSCULOSKELETAL DYNAMICS ASSESSMENT UNDER WEIGHT-BEARING CONDITIONS

WIPO Patent Application WO2004058359

A3

In some illustrative embodiments, a method for the assessment of an ankle or the like includes: measuring musculoskeletal dynamics of an ankle or the like of a patient (P) with the patient (P) in a posture that is weight-bearing through the ankle or the like. In some embodiments, a device for assessing musculoskeletal dynamics of an ankle or the like of a patient (P) in a weight-bearing posture can include: a platform (60) to support a patient (P) in a weight-bearing posture; a drive mechanism (30) to impart pulse movement to the platform (60); a position sensor (20) to sense a position of the platform (60); a force or torque sensor (40) to sense a force or torque on the platform (60); a control system (100) to determine musculoskeletal dynamics based on outputs from the displacement sensor (20) and the force or torque sensor (40).
