A method of evaluating a bone fracture reduction includes imaging, intraoperatively, a fractured bone to obtain a representation of the fractured bone in a computing system. The fractured bone defines at least first and second bone fragments separated by a fracture. The method includes imaging a contralateral bone of the patient to obtain a representation of the contralateral bone in the computing system and further includes generating, intraoperatively in the computing system, a virtual model of the fractured bone from data presented in the representation of the fractured bone and a virtual model of the contralateral bone from data presented in the representation of the contralateral bone. The method includes comparing, intraoperatively in the computing system, a spatial dimension measured with respect to the virtual model of the fractured bone with a corresponding spatial dimension measured with respect to the virtual model of the contralateral bone.
