Hallux valgus (HV) represents a progressive 3-dimensional deformity that includes bone malalignment, hypermobility of the first ray, and imbalanced soft-tissue structures of the midfoot and forefoot. Conventional radiographs provide sectorized and limited information of the deformity in different planes. The literature evidence supporting the use of cone beam weightbearing computed tomography in the assessment of HV has been growing. It demonstrates important advances that include the ability to reliably perform traditional measurements such as HV angle and intermetatarsal angle in the 3 dimensional setting.
