Analysis and Diagnosis

Gain a thorough understanding of your orthopedic problem through in-depth assessments and a holistic approach to better treat you.

Understand before you act

Effective care begins with a rigorous clinical assessment. At Medicol, each patient benefits from a comprehensive evaluation incorporating connected tools and the latest generation of 3D imaging technologies. Gait, mobility, and balance assessments objectively document your functional status. These evaluations are recorded using validated medical scores, providing a clear picture of your abilities and needs. Short- and medium-term results are systematically analyzed to adjust the treatment strategy. This documented approach forms the basis of personalized care focused on measurable goals.

Our diagnostic methods

Results and follow-up

Short- and medium-term results are systematically documented and analyzed. This traceability allows us to adjust the treatment strategy according to your progress and to objectively measure the effectiveness of the treatments undertaken. You thus have a clear view of your progress.

The Mobility Assessment

A mobility assessment represents an innovative diagnostic approach that places movement at the heart of the medical evaluation. Unlike traditional examinations that focus solely on an isolated joint, this approach analyzes your overall function, taking into account the complex interactions between your different joints, your balance, your posture, and your gait.
