What is Tibia Length?

The tibia, also known as the shinbone, is the larger and stronger of the two bones in the lower leg. Tibia length is measured from the medial malleolus to the tibial plateau. This measurement is often used in anthropometric studies and forensic science to estimate a person’s height.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following value:

Using the formula:

\[ H = 40 \times 2.4 = 96 \, \text{cm} \]

The estimated height is 96 cm.
