description Weightbearing radiographs are widely used to investigate foot disorders. However, it is unclear how imaging during partial weightbearing affects foot alignment measurements. This study aimed to determine a partial weightbearing threshold that yields consistent measurements of various radiographic angles. Eighteen normal fresh‐frozen cadaveric foot specimens were dissected and prepared for mechanical testing using a custom‐designed, computed tomography‐compatible loading frame. Specimens were placed in a neutral ankle position and scanned in five axial loading conditions (0%, 12.5%, 25%, 37.5%, and 50% bodyweight) using weightbearing computed tomography. (Note 50% bodyweight per foot represents full bodyweight in quiet stance.) The lateral first talometatarsal and calcaneal pitch angles were measured on lateral radiographic projections, and the hallux valgus angle and first−second, fourth−fifth, and first−fifth intermetatarsal angles were measured on axial projection images. The lateral first talometatarsal angle decreased significantly with increased bodyweight loading (p
