# Galileo SMO Measurement Instructions

The numbers of the measurements given here correspond to those on the order form.

1\. **Horizontal AP at Medial Malleolus\*:** \*This is a measurement unique to Galileo SMO, so it's important! At the Height of the Medial malleolus, measure the distance between the anterior and posterior sides of the limb.\![Horizontal AP at Medial Malleolus](https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helpdesk/website/-/b/b/6/1/bb61eef0a8622800/image_r88j5o.png)

2\. **Circumference from Back of Heel over Front of Ankle:** Measure around the foot, following a path between the apex of the Heel to the Dorsum.

 3\. **Circumference through Apex of Arch:** The path in which the circumference is measured does not have to be normal to the ground, it should fit naturally around the apex of the arch.

4\. **Circumference over 1st and 5th Met Heads:** This is also unique to Galileo SMO, so make sure you grab it! This must encapsulate the 1st and 5th Met Heads
