Abstract
A calibration system for a tensiometer provides a platform having a footplate with a fulcrum bar for providing a located force on an individual's leg to be used in conjunction with a tissue stress sensor attached near a tendon or ligament of the leg to establish a relationship between force on the tendon or ligament and the tissue stress sensor output for simplified calibration.
