Q
  • Apparent angulation of the calcaneus to the supporting surface
  • Change in angulation probably due to inversion/ eversion of calcaneus
  • MTJ determines calcaneus position

Q

• Cyma line – line formed by articulation of T-N and C-C joints
o Normally “S” shaped
o Broken by anterior displacement = pronation
o Broken by posterior displacement = supination
• Also can assess if 1st ray is dorsiflexed or plantarflexed

A

Signs of supination/ pronation
