Measurement of scoliosis Cobb angle by end vertebra tilt angle method [PDF]
Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2018 Background Scoliosis is a common deformity, and its severity is usually assessed by measuring the Cobb angle on the spinal X-ray film. The measurement of the Cobb angle is an important basis for selecting therapeutic methods and evaluating therapeutic ...

A Semi-Automatic Algorithm for Estimating Cobb Angle [PDF]
Journal of Biomedical Physics and Engineering, 2019 Background: Scoliosis is the most common type of spinal deformity. A universal and standard method for evaluating scoliosis is Cobb angle measurement, but several studies have shown that there is intra- and inter- observer variation in measuring cobb ...

Considering spatiotemporal evolutionary information in dynamic multi‐objective optimisation
CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Preserving population diversity and providing knowledge, which are two core tasks in the dynamic multi‐objective optimisation (DMO), are challenging since the sampling space is time‐ and space‐varying. Therefore, the spatiotemporal property of evolutionary information needs to be considered in the DMO.

Measuring the Cobb angle with the iPhone in kyphoses: a reliability study [PDF]
International Orthopaedics, 2012 Smartphones have gained widespread use in the healthcare field to fulfill a variety of tasks. We developed a small iPhone application to take advantage of the built-in position sensor to measure angles in a variety of spinal deformities. We present a reliability study of this tool in measuring kyphotic angles.Radiographs taken from 20 different ...
