Radiographic measurement of the lower limb alignment in the frontal plane is used to assess limb deformity, to plan corrective surgery and for follow-up. It is essential that age-related normal lower limb alignment and joint orientation angles are known before planning surgical treatment. EOS (EOS™ Imaging, Paris, France) can lead to supplemental information, especially in cases of severe multidimensional joint malalignment. It allows 3D reconstruction of a bone model of the limb to assess multi-dimensional deformity.
