Comparison and agreement analysis of Böhler and Gissane angles on radiographs and CT in dry human calcanei

The BA demonstrated superior measurement reliability compared to the Gissane angle, particularly when assessed by CT. GA measurements demonstrated low reproducibility and should be interpreted with caution, especially when obtained from x-rays. These findings support the preferential use of CT-based BA for morphometric and clinical evaluations of the calcaneus.

Abstract

The BA demonstrated superior measurement reliability compared to the Gissane angle, particularly when assessed by CT. GA measurements demonstrated low reproducibility and should be interpreted with caution, especially when obtained from x-rays. These findings support the preferential use of CT-based BA for morphometric and clinical evaluations of the calcaneus.
