Beyond the Curve: The Muscle-Specific Asymmetries of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis. [PDF]
JOR SpineAsymmetries in paraspinal muscle volume, intramuscular fat, and fat‐free muscle, observed across 11 vertebral levels, were greater in Adolescents with Idiopathic Scoliois (AIS) than in typically developing controls. Muscle asymmetries follow the shape of the scoliotic curve, typically with greater muscle volumes and intramuscular fat on the concave ...
