Background: To cope with the partial limb loss, transfemoral amputees (TFA) adapt compensatory strategies during walking which result in imbalance loading of the prosthetic and anatomical limb and the consequential asymmetrical gait pattern. Purpose: The present study focused on evaluating key asymm...
