HVAngleEst: A Dataset for End-to-end Automated Hallux Valgus Angle Measurement from X-Ray Images

Abstract Accurate measurement of hallux valgus angle (HVA) and intermetatarsal angle (IMA) is essential for diagnosing hallux valgus and determining appropriate treatment strategies. Traditional manual measurement methods, while standardized, are time-consuming, labor-intensive, and subject to evalu...

description Abstract Accurate measurement of hallux valgus angle (HVA) and intermetatarsal angle (IMA) is essential for diagnosing hallux valgus and determining appropriate treatment strategies. Traditional manual measurement methods, while standardized, are time-consuming, labor-intensive, and subject to evaluator bias. Recent advancements in deep learning have been applied to hallux valgus angle estimation, but the development of effective algorithms requires large, well-annotated datasets. Existing X-ray datasets are typically limited to cropped foot regions images, and only one dataset containing very few samples is publicly available. To address these challenges, we introduce HVAngleEst, the first large-scale, open-access dataset specifically designed for hallux valgus angle estimation. HVAngleEst comprises 1,382 X-ray images from 1,150 patients and includes comprehensive annotations, such as foot localization, hallux valgus angles, and line segments for each phalanx. This dataset enables fully automated, end-to-end hallux valgus angle estimation, reducing manual labor and eliminating evaluator bias.
