MMA-Net: Multiple Morphology-Aware Network for Automated Cobb Angle Measurement

IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 2023
Scoliosis diagnosis and assessment depend largely on the measurement of the Cobb angle in spine X-ray images. With the emergence of deep learning techniques that employ landmark detection, tilt prediction, and spine segmentation, automated Cobb angle ...

Heterogeneous Consistency Loss for Cobb Angle Estimation

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2021
Cobb angle is the most common quantification of the spine deformity called scoliosis. Recently, automatic Cobb angle estimation has become popular with either semantic segmentation networks or landmark detectors.

The Lumbosacral Takeoff Angle Can Be Used to Predict the Postoperative Lumbar Cobb Angle Following Selective Thoracic Fusion in Patients with Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis.

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. American volume, 2020
BACKGROUND Selective fusion of double curves in patients with scoliosis is considered to spare fusion levels. In 2011, we studied the lumbosacral takeoff angle, defined as the angle between the center-sacral vertical line and a line through the centra of

Automatic Cobb Angle Detection using Vertebra Detector and Vertebra Corners Regression

CSI@MICCAI, 2019
Correct evaluation and treatment of Scoliosis require accurate estimation of spinal curvature. Current gold standard is to manually estimate Cobb Angles in spinal X-ray images which is time consuming and has high inter-rater variability.
