Abstract Summary
Modern CT devices now allow 3D geometrical measurements on the foot under load, finally giving access to the overall bone architecture in weight bearing. Previous measures were limited either by the 2D projection implied in the X-ray radiograms, or by the non-weight-bearing standard CT scans in supine. These radiographic measurements shall be reconsidered now taking advantage of the 3D nature of these new devices. Applications are expected in musculo-skeletal modelling, and in functional assessment of surgical or orthotic treatments. The present investigation reports relevant exemplary measurements and proposes a new nomenclature.
