It is also useful to take the maximum length of the tibia. This 

 is secured by placing the spine within the orifice as with the previous 

 measurement, applying the most prominent point of the condyles to 

 the vertical, taking hold of the body by the left hand and moving the 

 bone from side to side as well as slightly upward and downward, while 

 holding the block applied to the malleolus, until the maximum length 



is determined.

Notes: The total height of the scapula is obtained by measuring in 

 a straight line the distance from the superior to the inferior angle. 



1 1 = Ordinary quadrilateral, approaching prismatic; anterior surface nearly 

 absent to moderate; posterior surface facing directly backward or nearly so. # 

 Lateral prismatic; posterior surface facing backward and inward; medial surface 

 much less in area than lateral; anterior surface narrow to broad. 2a = relation 

 between medial and lateral surface reversed, the latter being the narrower. 3 

 medial surface fluted; 4 = lateral surface differentiated into two surfaces; 6 

 lateral surface fluted; 6 = both medial and lateral surfaces fluted; 9 = all three 

 surfaces fluted.
