Abstract
By inferring a constant correlation of the Tibia with height, most Indian scholars have developed multiplication ratios instead of coefficient of determination. This presumption is only sometimes true, though. Regression formulas generated from the primary long bones are often more accurate for studies that are legitimate. As a result, we have developed a regression model in the current work to estimate height from tibial length. Aim of the study: This study will assist prosthetic limb clinics in estimating the proper length of prostheses. The study will be useful in leprosy patients' remedial procedures and surgery involving the replacement of limbs following an accident or injury. Conclusion: The length of the Tibia provides considerable reliability in estimating height in forensic exams, it is established. In the current research, men's average tibial length is 39.65 cm on the right side and 39.55 cm on the left. In females, the average tibial length is 36.35 cm on the right side and 36.14 cm on the left. Tibial length measurements may be used to determine a person's total height.
