Measure
TKA Patients
Measurements Using Ultrasound: Ultrasound measurements will be made in 5 positions. The ultrasound probe will be measuring from a fixed external location of the thigh. The 5 positions include: external rotation, neutral, manual tissue external rotation, straight leg raise at 30 degrees and hip/knee flexion at 90 degrees.
