Claim 0:
1. A method comprising:
obtaining at least one image of a subject, wherein the at least one image is any of (i) an X-ray image, (ii) a computed tomography image, (iii) a magnetic resonance imaging image, (iv) a biplanar X-ray image, or (v) any combination of (i)-(iv);
obtaining, from the at least one image, a set of anatomical positions of at least two vertebrae of the subject;
determining a model of the subject based on the set of anatomical positions, wherein the model defines a sagittal curvature profile, a coronal curvature profile, and one or more spinal parameters;
receiving one or more simulated spinal correction inputs corresponding to a surgical procedure;
predicting a simulated postoperative surgical correction for the subject based on the one or more simulated spinal correction inputs and the model;
determining a surgical plan for the subject based on the simulated postoperative surgical correction;
providing the surgical plan via a display;
designing a simulated spinal implant for use in conjunction with the simulated postoperative surgical correction;
manufacturing a personalized spinal implant configured to be implanted in the subject, the manufacturing being based on the simulated spinal implant; and
providing the personalized spinal implant for implantation into the subject.
