Figure Legend:
Measurement method. (a) Standing condition measurements and (b) measurements taken with the loading device in use. (c) Representative footscan and method for calculating the center of pressure. Pressure is indicated by the color scale from red (high) to blue (low). The medial–lateral direction = a/b: the distance from the medial tangents of the hindfoot and forefoot to the center of pressure over the distance between the medial and lateral tangents. The anterior–posterior direction = c/d: the distance from the trailing edge of the heel to the center of pressure over the length of the foot.
