Imaging in scoliosis.

چکیده
Recent advances in imaging technology have resulted in a better understanding of the complexities of the scoliotic spine. Plain radiography remains the usual method of measuring curvature progression, but use of multiplanar imaging techniques, such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance, have resulted in a greater understanding of the three dimensional nature of scoliosis and enabled underlying abnormalities to be detected with confidence.

Introduction: The differential diagnosis of idiopathic and syringomyelia associated scoliosis is important because corrective surgery for scoliosis associated with syringomyelia prior to management of syringomyelia can be dangerous. There are important imaging indicators for diagnosis of syringomyelia associated with scoliosis. A few of these indicators have been assessed in our study. Methods...
متن کاملRole of Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery in Adults with Degenerative Lumbar Scoliosis: A Narrative Review
Background and Aim: Degenerative lumbar scoliosis is a spinal deformity resulting from advanced disc degeneration and facet arthropathy. Given the inconclusive available literature and lack of high-quality data supporting the role of minimally invasive surgical management of degenerative lumbar scoliosis, this review intends to highlight and compare the various viable minimally invasive surgica...
متن کاملScoliosis
Scoliosis is a structural lateral curvature of the spine with a rotatory component. Imaging in scoliosis is important. Most cases of scoliosis are idiopathic, and imaging is used routinely in monitoring the changes of the deformity that take place during growth. Imaging is also crucial in determining the underlying etiology in non-idiopathic cases of scoliosis and is used in pre- and postoperat...
متن کاملEffects of Specific Schroth Exercises on Cobb Angle, Flexibility, and Functional Capacity of Adolescents with Idiopathic Scoliosis
Background and Objective:Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis is one of the complex and common deformities of the spine. It is a condition that can cause a lot of pain and discomfort for individuals and has consequences and complications. There are different exercises and approaches for correction of this deformity, such as Schroth exercise. In this regard, the purpose of this study was to investiga...
متن کاملThree-dimensional imaging for the surgical treatment of idiopathic scoliosis in adolescents.
Scoliosis is not simply a lateral deviation of the spine but is a complex deformity of the entire trunk. Recent advances in 3-dimensional (3-D) imaging have improved our understanding of the 3-D nature of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) and have resulted in the development of a new generation of spinal instrumentation. Stereophotogrammetry, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging ...
