Summary
This study uses a special X-ray technique to see how the bone and skin move inside a prosthetic leg socket when people walk. The goal is to understand what causes poor fit, skin problems, and pain. About 21 adults with a below-knee amputation will walk on a treadmill under two different socket conditions. The findings could help design better prosthetic sockets.
