Recruitment & Eligibility

• Status: Completed
• Sex: All
• Target Recruitment: 30

Inclusion Criteria

Have an Limb Length Discrepancy (LLD) of five millimetres or greater as diagnosed by the researchers.
Be between 18-65 years old.
Must be ambulatory.

Exclusion Criteria

If there is difficulty palpating the participant’s anatomical landmarks (Anterior Superior Iliac Spine (ASIS), and medial malleolus). Inclusion of such patients would lead to an increase in the measurement error for patients with impalpable landmarks, and would lead decreased result validity.
If the patient admits to a past history of lower-limb non-cosmetic surgery
