Abstract
AbstractThree out of every 100 people in this world have some form of scoliosis. A doctor would suggest surgery if scoliosis is severe in certain conditions to prevent it from getting worse. The de...

Scoliosis is a three-dimensional deformity of the spine that occurs mainly in adolescent
The One Sided Hausdorff Distance (OSHD) of 1.2 ± 0.03 mm and the mean Average Surface Distance (ASD) of 0.17 ± 0.01 mm were observed for 3D model of the phantom and the computed tomography (CT) scan model
The objective of the present study is to evaluate the accuracy of the morpho-realistic spine model, which can derive a 3D patient-specific surface model of the spine from 2D X-rays
Summary
Scoliosis is a three-dimensional deformity of the spine that occurs mainly in adolescent. The diagnosis would be more effective with the help of 3D model of the spine, as the deformity is three dimensional. In case of CT and MRI, the patient is made to lie on his back, which might alter the degree of curve and even the effect of radiation exposure can develop cancers when used repetitively. In both the cases, the patient needs to be in supine position during imaging and is expensive. The patient data available for this technique are in standing position compared with other techniques and it avails only 2D data, but for effective diagnosis, the development of 3D model of the spine with the above data can be very useful. The stereo-radiographic methods were used for 3D reconstruction of scoliotic spine (Andre, Dansereau, & Labelle, 1994)
