From the abstract
The determination of the optimal prosthesis alignment for maximum patient comfort is an important rehabilitation goal, especially for lower limb amputees, where the assessment of biomechanics is complex. Despite this, quantitative gait analysis is rarely used in clinical practice, and the influence of prosthesis alignment on gait kinematics remains unclear.
