Device for cinematic examinations of the knee
The device for cinematic examinations of the knee has been designed for
cinematic studies and examinations under stress of the knee joint.
The device is able to maintain the required position in terms of bending
angle, intra and extra rotations, and has also been designed to generate
conditions of stress when required in the specific examination.
It can also be used in all static examinations of the knee and lower limbs
where necessary.
The device can be positioned on the rear of the O-Scan system, and
consists in a type of plantar, known as a “foot setting lock” and a slide for
movement of the foot setting lock.
