Classification of objective aesthetic parameters in idiopathic scoliosis

چکیده
Background Aesthetic correction is a main aim in scoliosis treatment as defined by SOSORT. Objectively defining aesthetic parameters is difficult; recently TRACE has been proposed as a possible option, being the standardization of the subjective medical expert evaluation. Objective measures are needed for an automatic classification of aesthetics in scoliosis and for other severe back deformities. A 3D reconstruction of the back surface delivers a set of objective parameters used as a basis for this aesthetic classification.

Background and Objective: Patients with idiopathic scoliosis often have hypokyphosis in their spines, but some patients may exhibit an increase in kyphosis instead. The aim of this study was to define the effect of the kyphosis on the flexibility of scoliotic curves. Materials and Methods: A total of 100 cases of idiopathic scoliosis were studied with standing posteroanterior and lateral radiog...
