Select the center of the target endplate in the DRR image and obtain the coronal image on that line. (Reference lines are linked between DRR image and CT image.). D left: Select the center of the left and right vertebral bodies with the coronal image and configure the sagittal plane. Right: Sagittal CT image use for measurement and L1 upper endplate tilt.
