Abstract

For processing a medical image, medical image data representing a medical image of at least a portion of a vertebral column is received. The medical image data is processed to determine a plurality of positions within the image. Each of the plurality of positions corresponds to a position relating to a vertebral bone within the vertebral column. Data representing the plurality of positions is processed to determine a degree of deformity of at least one vertebral bone within the vertebral column.
