Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury
Electrical Stimulation and Eccentric Exercise for Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Injury
Quadriceps muscle weakness is a common consequence of ACL injury. This muscle weakness is considered to result from neural inhibition preventing full muscle contraction and is referred to as arthrogenic muscle inhibition (AMI).
