Background and Aim: Unlike sagittal plane prosthesis alignment, few studies have observed the effects of transverse plane alignment on gait and prosthesis behaviour. Changes in transverse plane rotation angle will rotate the points of loading on the...

In clinical settings, trans-tibial prosthetic alignment is a primarily subjective procedure that is based on: the clinical experience and judgment of prosthetists; and amputee feedback regarding comfort, stability and performance, which can be unre...
