Abstract

BACKGROUND: This work developed an interpretable deep learning model to automatically annotate landmarks and calculate the hallux valgus angle (HVA) and the intermetatarsal angle (IMA), reducing the time and error of manual calculations by medical experts and improving the efficiency and accuracy of hallux valgus (HV) diagnosis.
