Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

To date, there is no objective assessment method for the quality of the self-correction performed by patients with scoliosis.

The study consists of two parts, both retrospective, and distinct on the basis of the tools used to assess self-correction.

Part 1: Retrospective assessment of the radiographic variations between spontaneous position and self-correction in subjects suffering from juvenile and adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. Both measurements were performed in a single session.

Part 2: Retrospective assessment of the variations between spontaneous and self-correcting position in subjects with juvenile and adolescent idiopathic scoliosis using objective parameters deriving from non-invasive 3D ultrasound instrumentation (Scolioscan, Telefeld, Hong Kong).

    Arms and Interventions

    Arm Intervention/Treatment
    Ultrasound assessment

    Quantitative comparison between ultrasound images performed in active self-correction and in a spontaneous position

    RX assessment

    Quantitative comparison between radiological images performed in active self-correction and in a spontaneous position

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Self-correction measure [through study completion, an average of 6 months]

      The angular difference of the curves resulting from the detection with Scolioscan or Rx in the spontaneous position compared to what was obtained in the same condition but in the self-correcting position.
