However, in some situations like lower limb deformities, amputations, or in accidents or mass disasters, where mutilated parts of the body are available, measurement of height in the upright position is not possible and here the anthropometry becomes an important aid. Method: In the present study, we included 200 young, healthy medical students of 21-23 years. Out of these 100 were male and 100 were female students. Their height and arm span were calculated in cms using standard procedures. Observation: The data were subjected to statistical analysis. The mean, standard deviation, and standard error of the mean were calculated and the regression equation was derived for the height of males and females separately as Male: Ht=78.233+(0.534) As; R-value=0.702Female; Ht=18.802+(0.861)As; R-value=0.878 Conclusion: Thus It can be concluded that there is a correlation between height and arm span of an individual. And the arm span becomes one of the important and most accurate measures to find the height of a person.&#13;
