Abstract

The purpose of the research described in this work is to answer how to measure the rheologic (viscoelastic) properties and tendo– deformational characteristics of soft tissue. The method would also deals with the resemblance of muscle palpation examination as it is known in clinical practice. For this purpose, an instrument with the working name “myotonometer” has been used. The Myotonometer measures constrain dislodging attributes of muscle and different tissues situated underneath the measuring test. At present, there is lack of objective methods for assessing the muscle tone by viscous and elastic properties of soft tissue. That is why we
decided to focus on creating or finding quantitative and qualitative methodology capable to specify muscle tone.
