Every muscle test, in 3D.
The patient on the table in the right position for every grade, the muscles being graded in red on the skeleton, and the goniometer held on each joint with only its moving arm turning.

Muscle tests
Grade by grade, position by position.
69 manual muscle tests across 12 parts of the body, from the neck and trunk to the fingers and toes. Pick a grade and the patient moves into the position it is tested in: 481 set-ups, each on the plinth in 3D.
The muscles, named
Prime movers in red, assisting muscles paler, each labelled on the model as it moves.
Where your hands go
An arrow where you resist and a ring where you palpate, marked on the body.
Every way to test a grade
When a grade can be tested sitting or side-lying, or another way, each one is there to choose.
Steps you can hear
Position of patient, position of therapist, the test and the instructions, numbered, opening to full text, and read aloud.
What to watch for
Substitutions and helpful hints, after the test itself.
From test to range
One tap from a muscle test to measuring the same movement with the goniometer, and back.
Goniometry
A goniometer that stays still.
35 movements at 9 joints. The axis sits on the fulcrum, the stationary arm lies along the part that stays still, and only the moving arm turns with the limb, with the reading live as it goes. One tap looks straight down onto the dial.
Shoulder to ankle, and the spine
Shoulder, elbow, forearm, wrist, hip, knee, ankle, and the cervical and lumbar spine.
Placement, step by step
Where the axis, the stationary arm and the moving arm go, and the normal range, for every movement.
A tape where it belongs
Lumbar flexion and extension are measured with a tape on the lower back, read in centimetres.
In the app
Turn it, stop it, look closer.
Orbit and zoom any model, drag the slider to hold a movement anywhere in its range, and switch between the whole patient and a close-up of what is tested. Light and dark, English and Arabic.
