Abstract

The use of the optical computer system, designed at the Ukrainian Research Institute of Prosthetics, Prosthesis Making and Working Capacity Restoration for estimation of geometric parameters of the lower extremities by their photo, makes it possible to objectively assess results of using orthoses of the lower extremities with a high accuracy.
