Background:Tibial torsion lacks a single and reliable method for its measurement. While physical examination, computed tomography (CT), and EOS imaging are used complementarily, three-dimensional (3D) CT is the most widely used method for intuitive documentation and visualization. However, concern regarding the associated radiation hazard limits its use in the evaluation of pediatric patients. Moreover, EOS machines are too expensive and too large to be placed in every clinic requiring the measurement of tibial torsion. Therefore, a new method for 3D reconstruction is needed. In the present study, we tested the validity and reliability of a novel reconstruction tool for the lower leg.Methods:A statistical shape model and Laplacian constraint were adopted for the development of a new reconstruction tool for measuring tibial torsion. Tibial torsion measurements based on a 3D reconstruction application and CT images for 36 patients were evaluated for intraobserver and interobserver reliability. Tibial torsion measurements for 75 patients were compared for validation.Results:A 3D reconstruction system for the lower leg was developed as a mobile application and was installed in a portable device for easy access in the clinical setting. In terms of interobserver reliability, the intraclass correlation coefficient among 3 clinicians was 0.896 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.828 to 0.941). The correlation coefficient between tibial torsion measured with use of 3D CT and that measured with the mobile application was 0.865 (p < 0.001).Conclusions:The mobile application showed excellent reliability and validity for measuring tibial torsion. Concurrent utilization with mobile application for the femur allows visualization of the rotational profile of the leg without the need for CT or EOS.Level of Evidence:Diagnostic Level III.
