This dataset contains: A simple Excel spreadsheet containing the raw data behind the figures in the linked journal paper.

The keys for the Excel sheets are as follows:

- Figure 4:

Raw data behind chart showing soft tissue percentages of superficial and adipose-infiltrating muscle tissue, and total adipose, for residual limbs and contralateral limbs in people with amputations, and control limbs for people without amputations.

- Figure 5:

Raw data behind scatter plots of:
- superficial adipose in the residual and contralateral limbs
- infiltrating adipose in the residual and contralateral limbs
- infiltrating adipose vs. hours of socket use, and
- infiltrating adipose vs. time since amputation.

- Figure 6:

Raw data behind chart showing soft tissue deformation under load at the patellar tendon, lateral calf and posterior calf, in people with amputations, and control limbs for people without amputations.

- Figure 7:

Raw data behind chart showing soft tissue stiffness at the patellar tendon, lateral calf and posterior calf, in people with amputations, and control limbs for people without amputations.
