“…The tester palpated the greater trochanters and as many pelvic landmarks as possible (ie, iliac crests, anterior superior iliac spines, posterior superior iliac spines, and ischial tuberosities) to determine the existence of an LLI. 6 If an LLI was suggested by the asymmetry of at least 2 sets of landmarks (eg, greater trochanters and iliac crests), the masonite boards were placed under the foot of the suspected shorter limb until the examiner determined that the greater trochanters and other pelvic landmarks were level. Subjects with a suspected LLI equal to or greater than 6.4 mm (0.25 in), based on the indirect assessment method, were then scheduled for a radiograph to be performed on a separate day.…”
