Currently, many sectors of clinical medicine is combine with information technology. The purpose is to improve the diagnosis and subsequently the treatment of patients.
For the need of clinical physiotherapy was for this purpose in the Czech Republic developed computer software called MFK System(R). Based on the examination of myokinetic muscle activation, this software visualizes the projection maps of functional disorders of the musculoskeletal system and offers the choice of therapy according to current diagnostic findings.
In our study, we were interested in what brought a visualization of the projection of the locomotor system for clinical physiotherapy in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) processed by that expert system. Software were used for evaluation of the results in changes of myokinetic activation due the individually selected therapy and for treatment itself.
Measurements were carried out before and after therapy. At the beginning and end of the experiment all probands underwent testing of myokinetic activation and more tests for evaluation of gait and balance.
