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...

abstract nowadays, the science of decision making has been paid to more attention due to the complexity of the problems of suppliers selection. as known, one of the efficient tools in economic and human resources development is the extension of communication networks in developing countries. so, the proper selection of suppliers of tc equipments is of concern very much. in this study, a ...
15 صفحه اولCobb Angle Quantification for Scoliosis using Image Processing Techniques
Measurement of Cobb angle is the standard technique used for scoliosis assessment. The challenging task in computerized method lies in totally automating the method of curvature measurement from digital X-ray images. In this paper we presented a method which automatically measures the Cobb angle from radiographs after selection of the end vertebrae of the curve. The image processing methods use...
متن کاملComputer-assisted algorithms improve reliability of King classification and Cobb angle measurement of scoliosis.
STUDY DESIGN Interobserver and intraobserver reliability study of improved method to evaluate radiographs of patients with scoliosis. OBJECTIVE To determine the reliability of a computer-assisted measurement protocol for evaluating Cobb angle and King et al classification. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Evaluation of scoliosis radiographs is inherently unreliable because of technical and human ...
