Table 1.

Calculation of total curling angular change (θΔ). Data summary for measurements of θcurly-enclosed, θnatural and θΔ for each anatomical location. Note: θcurly-enclosed is the curly-enclosed angle, θnatural is the natural angle and θΔ is the total curling angular change. CD represents the circumferential direction, and LD represents the longitudinal direction.
