0It’s a non-invasive diagnostic and measuring system for recording and dynamic analysis of body movement and posture. The system is based on the ultrasound technology measuring distances between sensors placed on the patient’s body.
The examination consists in showing characteristic anatomical points on the patient’s skeleton with the ultrasound indicator. These points are treated by the software as passive points (as opposed to active points, which are two markers of the point indicator). Their position and possible movement (static or dynamic test) are tracked and recorded in real time in the software.
The ZEBRIS APGMS system can be used e.g. for:
- objective assessment of posture and figure in a static position,
- assessment of the range of motion and shape of curves during specific tests (e.g. Schober or Otto),
- analysis of spine movement patterns in all planes,
- assessment of the range of mobility of individual sections of the spine and the total mobility of the pelvis and spine for the ergonomics and sport purposes,
- assessment of the symmetry of individual anthropometric points,
- assessment of the relative alignment (tilt) of body segments.
We carry out our tests according to the client individual instructions. We’re open to determine the course of research for non-standard requirements.
