Title: Bone lengh x-rays
Post by: Alittletooshort on April 15, 2015, 11:16:09 AM

I had my x-rays taken today, my tibal bones are around 390mm's long and femural bones are around 460mm's long. Does anyone know if this is rather short long or average for a height of 179.
Perhaps someone had them measured too so I could compare them.
One leg is almost 1 cm shorter than the other one and I've never noticed it lol.

I had my x-rays taken and they calculated the exact bone length. I have them here but I don´t know how to upload them. Did you measure your legs or your bones? It´s impossible to get the bone length without x-rays.

i only want to know from what point of the femur you measure it. look at the photo on the left , the first one, do you measure your femur from that point to that other point? http://m1.wyanokecdn.com/34e1c0023383fe48edb92142cb116ff3.jpg

Exactly
I´d really like to know about others who had them meaured, just to compare them.
