Hi
I want to analyse quantitative measure of gastrocnemius strength in a patient
population.
I would like to know which is the best way of doing it?-
1. the manual muscle test- asking pts. to stand on toes repeatedly,
2.The leg dynamometer
3. the hand held dynamometer- & perform plantarflexion in lying
or if there is any other method.
thanks
Sunila
