Abstract
The aim of this study was to analyze radiological change of Kager's triangle area and retrocalcaneal surface temperature by shoes heel height. Area of Kager's triangle was measured by simple radiography study And PACS of INFINITI. Retrocalcaneal surface temperature were measured by DITI. Area of Kager's triangle and retrocalcaneal surface temperature were calculated for comparison and analysis, with flat shoes and high heel shoes. Area of Kager's triangle($0.88cm^2$) and retrocalcaneal surface temperature ($1.4^{\circ}C$)tends to decrease with high heel shoes. The highest and shortest of the Kager's triangle area and a surface temperature difference between flat shoes and high heel shoes, each $0.9cm^2$, $1.2cm^2$, $1.6^{\circ}C$, $0.5^{\circ}C$ and showed slight differences. The highest weight and the lowest weight of a surface area and the temperature difference between flat shoes and high heels, each $1.8cm^2$, $0.8cm^2$, $1.1^{\circ}C$, $0.2^{\circ}C$ and higher weight Kager's area and the surface temperature is decreased. The longest time and shortest time of a surface area and the temperature difference between high heels, each $0.8cm^2$, $1.4^{\circ}C$. In conclusion, Areas of Kager's triangle and retrocalcaneal surface temperature decrease with high heel shoes. If we wear high heel shoes for a long time, retrocalcaneal pain and blood flow disorder will occurs.
