Image: The electrogoniometer serves as a diagnostic device for surgeons or physical therapists, who currently use X-rays to evaluate the progression pre- and post-spinal surgery. The tri-axial electrogoniometer is a battery-powered device, attached to the back by two straps, that displays real time data of every spinal movement in three orthogonal planes. It allows clinicians to evaluate the range of motion of the spine, providing more dynamic and accurate results than X-rays (Photo courtesy of the Stevens Institute of Technology).
