[Possibilities for the use of a device to measure pressure distribution in anthropometric and orthopedic assessment of foot data].
Based on a quantitative registered picture of the pressure-distribution under the human foot sole the evaluation of anthropometric sizes is described and compared with usual methods. A sectorial evaluation of the pressure-distribution including an analysis of weight, area, maximum pressure and average pressure in the different sectors is reported. It is discussed, how this standardizable method can support an orthopedic diagnosis using static and dynamic pictures of the pressure-distribution of the foot.
