Background. The complex deformities in cavovarus feet may be difficult to assess and understand. Weight-bearing CT (WBCT) is increasingly used to evaluate complex deformities. However, the bone axes may be difficult to calculate in the setting of severe deformity. Computer-assisted 3D-axis calculation is a novel approach that may allow for more accurate assessment of foot alignment / deformity. The aim of this study was to assess differences in measurements done manually on 2D slices of WBCT versus 3D
