Abstract
A comparative radiologic study was carried out to test the stabilizing value of ankle strapping and taping on unstable tibiotalar joints. Unstable ankle joints of 51 athletes were examined without bandages, with strap ping, and with taping before and after an activity pro gram. The use of taping proved to give the greatest decrease of the talar tilt (TT) angle. This improvement was greater, even after activity, than the stabilization obtained by strapping before any activity.
