[The Study of a Relaxed Patient Position in Whole Lower Limb Radiography].

Purpose: In whole lower limb radiography, a position of the patella is the center of the knee with a leg slight internal rotation (a knee frontal position). However, we revised the positioning to stand naturally so that we can evaluate the lower limb alignment while standing more naturally (a relaxed patient position). In this study, we compared a lower limb alignment of a relaxed patient position and a knee frontal position.
