Effect of \'bad\' and \'good\' socket fit on functional capability of below knee amputees
Background: Socket is a mechanical coupling between residual limb and the prosthesis. The Lower limb prosthesis function is highly influenced by the quality of this coupling. Furthermore, the residual limb volume fluctuation compromise the prosthetic socket fit and hence the amputee's function....
