Clinical trials: Leg Length Difference
Leg Length Inequality, Cerebral Palsy
Spine Biomechanics During Gait Following Lower Extremity Treatment in Different Patient Groups
Measuring spine dynamics is a necessity in order to better understand gait deviations throughout the whole body and to evaluate treatment effects on spinal movement during gait.

Osteoarthritis, Leg Length Difference
The Influence of Leg Length Discrepancy After Total Hip Arthroplasty on Function and Quality of Life
Leg length discrepancy (LLD) is a complication of THA and may result in patient dissatisfaction, gait disorder, greater trochanter pain, low back pain. In the literature, LLD is reported to vary widely among studies e.g.

Muscle Physiology
Whole Body Vibration Induced Muscle Activity and Effect of the Changes in Length of Soleus Muscle and Angle of Ankle
Previous studies reported that myoelectrical activity increased during whole body vibration (WBV). The investigators hypothesized that the change in soleus muscle length does not affect the whole body vibration induced soleus…

Fractures
Evaluation of the Change in Length of the Leg in Children After Treatment of Femur Fractures.
Femur fractures are a common injury in the Pediatric population. Despite their high incidence little do we know about the long term implications on the bones' length.
