简要总结
The aim of the study to investigate any relation with functional parameters and femoral cartilage thickness evaluation by ultrasonography in lower extremity amputate individuals.
详细描述
In this prospective observational study, subjects approached Tertiary Rehabilitation Clinics for prothesis recipe or long term outpatient follow up was 150 people. Among them 76 subjects accepted to enroll study. Informed consent was taken. Subjects firstly performed clinical parameters at the first doctor's control. Knee radiography has been performed.
