Abstract:

With the aging of the population, adult spinal deformity (ASD) caused by degenerative changes in the spine, is becoming increasingly common. Accurate measurement of spinal balance is required for the diagnosis and treatment of ASD. Currently, the analysis is mainly conducted using X-rays, but there are limitations such as radiation exposure and difficulty in reflecting actual daily postures. On the other hand, radiation free 3D scanning method for the body surface developed with technological advances. The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of 3D body scanner analysis and conventional x- ray analysis in measuring ASD.
