Abstract
The aim of the research: to conduct an analytical review of modern scientific literature on the use of infrared thermography in rehabilitation after anterior cruciate ligament surgery.
Materials and methods: an analysis of foreign and domestic sources on this topic was carried out.
Results: our analysis indicates that using the infrared thermography method it is possible to effectively quantify load assimilation with the ability to quickly regulate it, which is a pressing issue in the postoperative management of patients after anterior cruciate ligament surgery and requires further study.
