The measuring device for diagnosis of ankle injuries is presented. Using that device it was possible to determine and compare the polar coordinates of certain points in healthy and injured joints on direct and lateral radiograms. The device enabled to increase the accuracy of diagnosis, allow to quantitatively assess the degree of bone fragment displacement and trauma severity.
