About this trial

The goal of this observational study is to learn whether the Robotic Knee Testing system can measure knee looseness in adults with an anterior cruciate ligament, or ACL, tear.

The main question it aims to answer is whether measurements from the Robotic Knee Testing system are related to the doctor's pivot shift exam grade.

Participants will complete one study visit before ACL reconstruction. During the visit, both knees will be tested in the Robotic Knee Testing system. Researchers may also review existing medical information and imaging.
