Abstract

The authors relate their experience with the EMED system for the dynamic assessment of plantar pressure used in clinical practice for 2 years: how the measurement device was chosen; how the examination is performed; the usefulness of this type of examination in foot surgery. They discuss the specific problems related to the application of this new diagnostic tool in clinical practice.
