    • Accurate assessment of foot deformities is crucial for effective treatment planning.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a novel three-dimensional (3D) geometric model for analyzing foot bony structure.
    • To demonstrate the application of this 3D model in studying cavus foot in a patient with Friedreich's ataxia.
    • To highlight the model's capability for accurate spatial evaluation of complex foot deformities.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a 3D geometric model.
    • Utilizing a stereoradiographic technique for data acquisition.
