Cobb Angle Measurement of Scoliosis with Reduced Variability
Cobb angle, which is a measure of spinal curvature, is the standard method for quantifying the magnitude of Scoliosis, related to spinal deformity in orthopedics. Determining the Cobb angle through manual process is subject to human errors. In this work, we propose a methodology to measure the magnitude of Cobb angle, which appreciably reduces the variability related to its measurement, compare...
متن کاملCobb Angle Measurement of Scoliosis Using Computer Measurement of Digitally Acquired Radiographs-Intraobserver and Interobserver Variability
STUDY DESIGN We evaluated computer assisted digital measurement of radiographic parameters in patients with idiopathic scoliosis. PURPOSE To assess the reliability of digital measurements. OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE Various authors analyzed scoliotic deformities by conventional radiographs, but very few studies have addressed the reliability of digital radiographic measurement using computer so...
متن کاملThe effect of chiropractic techniques on the Cobb angle in idiopathic scoliosis arising in adolescence
[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to examine whether chiropractic techniques would reduce the curvature of idiopathic scoliosis, which commonly occurs in elementary school children. [Subjects] The subjects of this study were 5 healthy elementary students who listened to an explanation of the study methods and purpose of the study and agreed to participate in the experiment. [Methods] The ...
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 کاملSupine to standing Cobb angle change in idiopathic scoliosis: the effect of endplate pre-selection
BACKGROUND Supine imaging modalities provide valuable 3D information on scoliotic anatomy, but the altered spine geometry between the supine and standing positions affects the Cobb angle measurement. Previous studies report a mean 7°-10° Cobb angle increase from supine to standing, but none have reported the effect of endplate pre-selection or whether other parameters affect this Cobb angle dif...
