Multimodal image registration of the scoliotic torso for surgical planning
(2013-12)
Background
This paper presents a method that registers MRIs acquired in prone position, with surface topography (TP) and X-ray reconstructions acquired in standing position, in order to obtain a 3D representation of a ...
Patient-specific model of a scoliotic torso for surgical planning
(2013-03)
A method for the construction of a patient-specific model of a scoliotic torso for surgical planning via inter- patient registration is presented. Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI) of a generic model are registered to surface ...

Clinical methods for quantifying body segment posture: a literature review
(Taylor and Francis Group, 2011-07-30)
Purpose. Clinicians commonly assess posture in persons with musculoskeletal disorders and tend to do so subjectively. Evidence-based practice requires the use of valid, reliable and sensitive tools to monitor treatment ...
Personalized 3D reconstruction of the rib cage for clinical assessment of trunk deformities
(2013-11-01)
Scoliosis is a 3D deformity of the spine and rib cage. Extensive validation of 3D reconstruction methods of the spine from biplanar radiography has already been published. In this article, we propose a novel method to ...
Is Breast Asymmetry Present in Girls with Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis?
(2014-09)
Study Design
Cross-sectional descriptive study.
Objectives
To characterize breast asymmetry (BA), as defined by breast volume difference, in girls with significant adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS), using magnetic ...
Noninvasive Clinical Assessment of Trunk Deformities Associated With Scoliosis
(2013-03-07)
Besides the spinal deformity, scoliosis modifies notably the general appearance of the trunk resulting in trunk rotation, imbalance, and asymmetries that constitutes patients' major concern. Existing classifications of ...
Non-invasive quantitative assessment of scoliosis spinal surgery outcome
(2013-03-29)
Improving the appearance of the trunk is an important goal of scoliosis surgical treatment, mainly in patients' eyes. Unfortunately, existing methods for assessing postoperative trunk appearance are rather subjective as ...
