Abstract
A device and method for measuring the angle and range of motion of a body joint used in the course of medical treatment. Index marks are placed on the limbs of the patient that correspond to registration indicators on the arms of the device. This allows consistent application of the device in measurement sessions over time to ensure consistent measurements of the joint. A fixed display and a wireless broadcast of the angle are for reading the angles of the joint.
