Figure 17 illustrates a flowchart diagram depicting a method 1700 for generating one or more patient specific instruments configured to correct a bone condition, according to one embodiment. Prior to steps of the method 1700, a bone model (also referred to as CAD model above) is generated. The bone model may be generated using medical imaging of a patient’s foot and may also be referred to as an anatomic model. The medical imaging image(s) may be used by computing devices to generate patient imaging data. The patient imaging data may be used to measure and account for orientation of one or more structures of a patient’s anatomy. In certain embodiments, the patient imaging data may serve or be a part of anatomic data for a patient.
