    Rotational malalignment of the lower limb can lead to functional impairments and knee disorders such as osteoarthritis.

  • 2

    Tomography-based imaging is the standard for assessing axial rotation alignment in cases of suspected lower limb deformity.

  • 3

    This study included 105 healthy subjects to establish reference values for intra-individual axial rotation alignment.

  • 4

    CT angiography was used to analyze femoral and tibial rotation alignment, measuring four key axes in the lower limb.

  • 5

    The study aimed to improve objective assessment of axial-plane deformities in post-traumatic and other conditions.
