Biodex System 4 Dynamometer

ACLR does not always lead to successful outcomes and return to sport, and the costs can be significant. Current research shows specific criteria to determine RTP that includes isokinetic testing can help reduce the likelihood of reinjury.

Biodex is proud to support those who insist on objective data to return athletes to sport safely. For more information, contact us at (800) 224-6339 (+1-631-924-9000), or [email protected].
