MRI-based 3D models were feasible for SCFE patients. Three-dimensional models could be useful for severe SCFE patients for preoperative 3D printing and deformity analysis and for ROM simulation. This could aid for patient-specific diagnosis, treatment decisions, and preoperative planning. MRI-based 3D models are radiation-free and could be used instead of CT-based 3D models in the future.
