Verification of selected anatomical landmarks used as reference points for universal goniometer positioning during elbow joint mobility range measurements.
The paper presents the results of comparative studies on the range of active elbow joint motion based on data obtained from 50 physical education students. The measurements were made with both an electrogoniometer and a manual goniometer. An explanation of differences in measurement results has been provided based on an investigation by the photographic method of 3 elbow joints using cadaveric material.
