What Would Be The Right Range In Degrees For Coronal Plane Of The Ankle?
I m trying to understand the coronal plane of the ankle. It s degree has a connection to whether or not a TAR is an option for treatment. One doctor said 20 - 25 degrees is okay another had said it has to be 10 degrees. I don t understand what they are measuring, and how can there be such a range in differences? I m sorry. I didn t know this was a pay consultation. Thank you just the same. Good night.
