Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue presents, as an integrative approach, new trends in the theoretical, fundamental, and application research for the “Advanced Research in Foot and Ankle Kinematics”. Through this Special Issue, we aim to make all colleagues aware of the latest advances in research in our discipline, highlighting new exploratory and surgical techniques, new proposals for the treatment of common pathologies in our area, the use of useful questionnaires in our clinical practice for the assessment of the patient's condition, as well as the applicability in our discipline of new diagnostic and research tools. All this with the aim of generating and increasing the degree of knowledge among professionals.
Researchers are encouraged to submit their latest findings and results as full-length articles or reviews. Targeted topics include, but are not limited to, the design and applicability of new treatment in any area of our discipline. The analysis of foot and ankle kinematics and its applicability in the legal field, the use of new validated tools for analysis, and, as in this Special Issue, also features articles relating to applications in podiatry clinics.
