Erosions were assessed in 16 locations per hand and 6 joints per foot. Erosions for each hand location were scored from 0 to 5, with 0 indicating no erosion. Scores 1 to 5 may have included combinations of discrete erosion(s) and/or large erosions. Erosions for each foot joint were scored from 0 to 10, with 0 indicating no erosions.
The minimum possible total erosion score for all 32-hand joints was 0, the maximum possible erosion score for all 32-hand joints was 160. The minimum possible total erosion score for all 12-feet joints was 0, the maximum possible erosion score for all 12 feet joints was 120. Thus, the minimum possible total erosion score for hands and feet was 0, the maximum possible total erosion score for hands and feet was 280. Higher values represent greater damage.
