Our Game-Changing Technologies

A broad range of musculoskeletal conditions often share similar or even identical symptoms. Without the ability to visualize the affected structures, diagnosis becomes a guessing game. Imaging via Xray and MRI can help, but they only provide localized images of the affected area, with a limited field of vision.

The clinic at NYDNRehab features the highest resolution research-grade ultrasound equipment currently available. Using this advanced technology, our skilled clinicians are able to view the affected tissues and structures in real time, with the patient in motion and providing valuable feedback.

Using a hand-held transducer, we are able to visualize nerves along their entire path, detect deep tissue trigger points, and zero in on structural issues that may be the root cause of pain and dysfunction. In addition, this technology enables us to test soft tissue elasticity, and to image microscopic blood vessels to confirm that healing is taking place.

Athletes, ballet dancers, fitness instructors and anyone whose daily activities include skills-specific motion can benefit from a biomechanical analysis that measures performance efficiency. Regularly performing repetitive movements with suboptimal execution can lead to acute and chronic injuries that can be career-ending and debilitating.

Our 3D motion analysis technologies enable us to precisely measure force loads, joint angles, center of mass, muscle firing patterns and more. We use your collected data to establish a baseline, then provide feedback retraining to fine-tune your movement patterns and perfect your skills. 3D motion analysis helps you optimize your performance and prolong your career while dramatically reducing your risk of injury.

Rebuilding muscle strength while joints and connective tissues are still healing is a challenge for athletes who need to return to sport in the shortest time possible. BFRT enables you to increase muscle size and strength at much lower training volumes, to reduce stress on still-healing structures while rapidly restoring muscle performance.

We use the Kineo intelligent loading system to create customized training and rehabilitation programs for our patients. With Kineo, we can customize variable load protocols for functional training, core training, agility drills and more. The Kineo variable resistance system lets us design a personalized variable load curve based on the needs of the individual patient.
