Abstract: Systems and methods are provided to plan a spinal correction surgery. The method includes measuring parameters of a spine in a two-dimensional (2D) spinal image including a thoracic Cobb angle and a thoracic kyphosis (TK) and transforming the 2D image to a three-dimensional (3D), spinal image representation. The transforming includes performing segmentation of spine elements in the 2D image, and applying a formula based on the thoracic Cobb angle and the TK to the spine elements. The method includes identifying a TK goal having a post-operative TK value to selected spine elements, transforming a gap of the spine elements representative of a difference between the pre-operative TK in 3D spinal image representation and the TK goal to create a 3D post-operative spinal image representation, and determining a first rod design based on the 3D post-operative spinal image representation to achieve the post-operative TK value in the spine elements.
