Participants who have had x-rays in a brace will not be included.
Participants who have had an x-ray from another institution will not be included in the study. X-rays from out of community are typically done with a different and lower quality machine then the one at our institution. Additionally, we do not have consent from outside institutions to use their x-rays for research purposes.
Participants with a confirmed pregnancy will not be included. Pregnancy status will be self-reported by participants.
Participants with the existence of a second deformity which may affect topographic assessment will be excluded (e.g. Limb length discrepancy greater than 2cm).
Families who do not speak English and Spanish will be unable to participate as the application is only available in English and Spanish at this time.
Families who do not have access to their own compatible personal smart phone device will be unable to participate in the study.
