s 527 Myoton Pro: A Novel Tool for the Assessment of Mechanical Properties of Fascial Tissues Aleko Peipsi, Ricardas Kerpe, Heike Jager, Sonja Soeder, Christopher Gordon, Robert Schleip Fascia Research Group, Division of Neurophysiology, Universitat Ulm, Albert-Einstein-Allee 11, 89081 Ulm, Germany Figure 1 A) The cell phone size of the Myoton Pro plus its automatic illumination of the indentation probe allow for improved precision of the data acquisition. B: The device measures the displacement, velocity and acceleration of the tissue response. From these data five different biomechanical tissue parameters are gained.

These tools create a constant pre-load of the soft tissue via a movable indentation probe, which is then rapidly released and the tissue response (damping oscillation) of the tissue is measured. |
