Biomechanical properties of skeletal muscle surface, a method and apparatus for the selective measurement and noninvasive viscoelastic properties and shrinkage characteristics

摘要

Skeletal muscle, muscle sites, tendons, and the subject of the present invention, and the measurement method for non-invasive measurement selective and biomechanical properties of ligaments (measured), contractile properties, viscoelastic properties of the (BCVP) The apparatus, measurement (examined by the very site it occurs the phenomenon) to be carried out in situ by measuring the force at the skin surface over the measurement object. As a main part, the measuring device (A) comprises a measuring sensor having a sensor tip appropriately shaped (2) and (1), a microprocessor (3), the support unit (4). Once positioned on the skin surface (5) on the measuring device of the invention (A) is shaped sensor tip (2) of being pressed to the skin. Can be used a pressure gauge or force meter any suitable, to measure the forces at the skin surface over the measured, at this time, the position sensor tip (2) is affected by the force to be measured never.
