Abstract：Digital orthopedics is a newborn discipline which is formed from the combination of computer technology and orthopedics gradually in recent years, and the techniques of digital orthopedics could make the relative researches, diagnosis and treatment more individualized, direct-viewing and accurate for calcaneal fracture with complex anatomic and biomechanical structures. In this paper, application of digital orthopedic techniques in calcaneal biomechanics, anatomy, fracture classification, and surgery of calcaneal fracture were reviewed, and the prospective of application of the techniques in this field were looked forward.
