The author presents a description of three geometric models to serve as a framework for establishing a numerical classification system of unlimited refinement for structural variations of the foot and foot types. Such a classification system may identify different forms (foot types) that may be closely aligned to complex movements of the foot (dynamic foot function). This may help in the diagnosis and treatment of biomechanical disabilities. Clinical evaluations are based on radiographic landmark data from weightbearing radiographs.
作者介绍了三种几何模型，作为建立一个对足部结构变异和足型进行无限细化的数值分类系统的框架。这样的分类系统可以识别出与足部复杂运动（动态足部功能）密切相关的不同形态（足型）。这可能有助于生物力学残疾的诊断和治疗。临床评估基于负重X线片的影像学标志数据。
