Diagrams and radiographs of the feet are used to illustrate: •calcaneal pitch •talocalcaneal angle •talar declination angle •lateral talar-1st metatarsal angle •talonavicular coverage angle •cuboid abduction angle •lesser tarsus angle •forefoot and metatarsus adductus angles •hallux valgus angle •proximal and distal articular set angles •1st intermetatarsal, metatarsophalangeal angles •Boehler's angle

1. Assess alignment of the adult hindfoot and midfoot. 2. Assess alignment of the adult forefoot including preoperative evaluation for hallux valgus and Tailor’s bunion
