Thus, the aim of this study was to quantify the inter- and intra-operator reliability of manually rotoscoping in vivo bone motion of the tibia, talus, and calcaneus during running. Three-dimensional ...

For the calcaneus, or heel bone, researchers measured only its length. Previous studies had shown that the talus -- or ankle bone -- and calcaneus can be fairly good indicators of biological sex.

The calcaneus is a crucial bone that serves as the foundation for the back of the foot, connecting the cuboid and talus bones, with the Achilles tendon attached to it.
