Exemplary measurement of static and dynamic leg axis alignment via DIERS formetric 4D System. a Static measurement: Marker placement on defined landmarks (soft spot directly below (1) and above (2) the calcaneus, insertion point of the medial and lateral head of the gastrocnemius muscle into the tendon (3), center of the popliteal fossa (4), center of the upper thigh directly beneath the gluteal fold (5)) and determination of static knee angle. Further leg angles indicated were not utilized in this study. b Dynamic measurement: Marker placement and determination of dynamic knee angle were performed as described in a
