KT-1000 knee arthrometer

The KT-1000 knee arthrometer is a device used by healthcare professionals to measure the stability of your knee, specifically the anterior (front) movement of the tibia (shinbone) in relation to the femur (thighbone). By gently applying force, it assesses whether an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury has caused excessive movement, indicating ligament weakness or tear. This testing provides objective data to help diagnose knee injuries accurately, monitor healing progress, and plan appropriate treatment. It’s a safe, non-invasive method that offers precise measurements of knee stability.
