Current research has provided a more comprehensive understanding of Adolescent Idiopathic
Scoliosis (AIS) as a three-dimensional spinal deformity, encompassing both lateral and …

Background Context Severe adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a three-dimensional
spinal deformity requiring surgery to stop curve progression. Posterior spinal instrumentation …

Background In North America, care recommendations for adolescents with small idiopathic
scoliosis (AIS) curves include observation or bracing. Schroth scoliosis-specific exercises …

Background The North American non-surgical standard of care for adolescent idiopathic
scoliosis (AIS) includes observation and bracing, but not exercises. Schroth physiotherapeutic …

Trunk images of children with scoliosis were examined to determine features that contribute
to the impression of trunk distortion. Twenty subjects with spinal deformity ranging from none …

Purpose Surgical treatment of severe adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) with posterior
spinal instrumentation and fusion with pedicle screws is common, requiring careful screw …

Purpose To investigate the intra- and inter-observer reliability of the coronal curvature
asymmetry of children with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) using the center of lamina (COL) …

To reduce variability of Cobb angle measurement for scoliosis assessment, a computerized
method was developed. This method automatically measured the Cobb angle on spinal …

Purpose The objectives of this preliminary study were to assess the reliability and accuracy
of ultrasound (US) for measuring coronal curvature with and without the aid of a previous …

Hypothesis Intraoral ultrasound is a safer and economical approach to image dento-periodontal
tissues and diagnose periodontal diseases compared with X-ray. A gel pad is often …
