Peer Reviewed Publications
The VibroSense Meter system is based on more than 35 years of clinical research carried out at the Faculty of Medicine for the Department of Translational Medicine and other clinics at the University of Lund and Malmö.
Professors Göran Lundborg and Lars Dahlin are the initiators of the use of Multi Frequency Vibrometry and in their research they have shown that the method provides a basis for a safe and early diagnosis of e.g. vibration injuries.
