Computer-Assisted Cobb Angle Measurement on Posteroanterior Radiographs
2008The Cobb angle method is the gold standard to assess severity of scoliosis. A computer-aided method was developed to provide a semi-automatic Cobb angle measurement during a scoliosis clinic. This study was to evaluate the reliability and accuracy of the developed method. Curve types were also tested.

Measurement of Lumbar Lordosis: A Comparison of 2 Alternatives to the Cobb Angle
Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics, 2020The purpose of this study was to compare 2 alternative methods, the radiologic Harrison Posterior Tangent Method (HPTM) and the nonradiologic Spinal Mouse (SM), to the Cobb angle for measuring lumbar lordosis.Sixteen participants with previously existing lateral lumbopelvic radiographs underwent nonradiographic lordosis assessment with a Spinal Mouse ...

Validity of Cobb angle measurements using digitally photographed radiographs
The Spine Journal, 2011Advances in technology are influencing the way that medical information is archived and shared. Considering that an estimated two-thirds of the world has little or no orthopedic care, high demand exists for adequate consultation regarding diagnostic images in orthopedic specialties.To validate the use of photographed scoliosis films for the accurate ...

Diurnal Variation of Cobb Angle Measurement in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis
Spine, 1993To investigate the possible influence of gravity on daily variations of curve magnitude in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, standardized anteroposterior standing radiographs of the spine were taken at 8:00 AM and repeated in the same conditions at 8:00 PM on the same day, 19 girls with idiopathic scoliosis, aged 10-16 years were included.

Radiographic Cobb Angle: A Feature of Congenital Lumbar Spine Stenosis
Current Problems in Diagnostic Radiology, 2019A low cost, reproducible radiographic method of diagnosing congenital lumbar spinal stenosis (CLSS) is lacking. We hypothesized that the Cobb angle for lumbar lordosis would be smaller in patients with CLSS, based on observations in our spine clinic patient population.

A Computer-aided Cobb Angle Measurement Method and its Reliability
Journal of Spinal Disorders & Techniques, 2010Development of a computer-aided Cobb measurement method and evaluation of its reliability.To reduce the variability of Cobb angle measurement by developing the computer-aided method and to investigate if the developed method is sensitive to observer skill levels or experiences.Therapeutic decisions for scoliosis heavily rely on the Cobb angle measured ...

Surface Topography and Cobb Angles in Idiopathic Scoliosis
1999Surface topography is used in spinal deformity to monitor cosmetic change. In order to be useful, it must not only yield values that correlate with radiological data, but must reliably change in tandem with radiological change. Using the average of 4 consecutive repeat scans to reduce error margins in a Quantec Imaging System, changes on radiograph and
