Feet segment note: The calcaneum and talus are recorded separately from the rest of the tarsal bones as a single digit in each (B75/76 and B77/78 respectively). The remaining tarsal bones are recorded as a five digit binary array corresponding to the following sequence: navicular, cuboid, medial cuneiform, intermediate cuneiform and lateral cuneiform. The foot (pedal) phalanges (B83-91) are recorded in the same way as the manual phalanges (see 2.2.4). Cells B52-54 should add up to no more than ten, cells B55-57 should add up to no more than eight and cells B58-60 should add up to no more than ten. Hallucial sesamoids can be counted as 1 or 2 for left and right or 1-4 for unsided sesamoids.

Phalanges segment note: The hand (manual) phalanges are divided into proximal, intermediate and distal rows. Those phalanges that can be readily sided should be recorded as such (cells B52, B55 and B58 for right and B54, B57 and B60 for left). Uncertain cases can be totalled in cells B53, B56 and B59 as unsided. Cells B52-54 should add up to no more than ten, cells B55-57 should add up to no more than eight and cells B58-60 should add up to no more than ten.
