Leg Length Discrepancy Ortho Block Set

Coleman Orthopedic Leg Length Discrepancy Blocks provide a convenient and practical solution for assessing and testing leg length discrepancies. While radiography remains the most accurate method for identifying leg length inequality, it is a time-consuming process for radiologists. The use of deep learning techniques can expedite this task by automatically determining leg length from X-rays.

This ortho kit includes nine wooden blocks, each graded by half centimeters from 1.0 to 5.0 cm, and stored in a portable wooden box with a stainless steel handle. The appropriate size block is placed under the foot of the shorter leg to ensure proper positioning of the pelvis during leg, spine, or pelvis X-rays in a standing position. Additionally, these blocks can help determine the correct size for a shoe lift.

Features:

• Designed for patients with a leg length discrepancy.
• Includes nine wooden blocks, graded by half centimeters, from 1 cm to 5 cm.
• Ensures proper pelvis positioning for leg, spine, and pelvis X-rays when standing.
• Useful for determining the correct size for a shoe lift.
• Can be used for the Coleman Block Test.

Applications: Leg length discrepancy measuring blocks are essential for determining the necessary build-up using one or more boards. They are also integral to performing the Coleman Block Test, which evaluates hindfoot flexibility and forefoot pronation in patients with a cavovarus foot deformity.

Each block measures 12" x 5".
