Ultrasound for Scoliosis Diagnostic Evaluation
April 2, 2021 updated by: Kevin Cleary, Children's National Research Institute
Slicer+PLUS: Collaborative, Open-source Software for Ultrasound Analysis
Scoliosis is a complex 3-dimensional deformity of the spine.
It may occur at any time throughout growth and development and is typically detected through x-ray imaging.
Although effective at visualizing a curve, x-ray imaging is costly and may expose children to potentially harmful ionizing radiation.
This is a 30 patient study to evaluate the reliability of ultrasound, an imaging technique without radiation, to effectively measure scoliosis deformities compared to the gold-standard of x-ray.

Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Other: Device Arm
This is a single arm study comparing an ultrasound with the industry standard of x-ray to detect and monitor scoliosis curvature.
|
An industry standard ultrasound will be fitted with a self-tracking probe to track along the spine.
The ultrasound will be performed three (3) times along the spine at initial consultation for scoliosis.
