Hello there,

I'm a 3rd year osteopathy student about to start my final year research project.
I was hoping to investigate whether there is any correlation between angle of pronation and occurence of knee injuries/pain in a random subject group.
The problem is, I don't have any access to x-ray equipment or anything particularly advanced (technology being a bit of a dirty word still for a lot of Osteos unfortunately!) for the measuring of pronation.
I have had a bit of a look online and seen various tests involving measuring talus height off the ground or drawing lines on the calcaneum and tibia and seeing how they relate, but all seem a bit vague. I was wondering if anybody had any suggestions of accurate testing/measuring I would be able to perform myself with limited resources? You seemed the people to ask!
I'm not looking to change the world or anything with my research but it would be nice to do something vaguely useful and therefore want data that's as accurate as possible.
I hope you don't mind my joining your forum and that this topic is posted in roughly the right place? All thoughts and ideas gratefully received.
Many thanks, Tom
