Bone orientation definitions based on anatomical landmarks (right foot)

Bone First axis Temporary axis Second axis Third axis
Calcaneus
Ycalc = | 1 → 2 |
tcalc = | 3 → 4 |
Xcalc = Ycalc X tcalc
Zcalc = Xcalc X Ycalc
Talus
Ytal = | 5 → 6 |
ttal = | 7 → 8 |
Ztal = ttal X Ytal
Xtal = Ytal X Ztal
Cuboid
Ycub = | 9 → 10 |
tcub = | 11 → 12 |
Xcub = Ycub X tcub
Zcub = Xcub X Ycub
Navicular Xnav = | 13 → 14 | tnav = | 13 → 15 | Ynav = tnav X Xnav Znav = Xnav X Ynav
