There's a lot of debate about tibia/femur ratio on this forum but I cannot find any information on how you actually measure them.
Take a look at this femur picture: http://humananatomy.co/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/femur-bone-femur-anatomy-and-attachments-bone-and-spine.jpg
Is it head of femur to medial condyle or greater trochanter to medial condyle?
Similar question about tibia and its bottom: http://www.learnbones.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Fibula.jpg
Do you start from articular surface or medial malleous?
Also, does anyone have any link to medical studies and proper stats? I have seen some ratio posts on this forum but can't find anything that is backed up by proper results.
