Accurate automated Cobb angles estimation using multi-view extrapolation net

Medical Image Analysis, 2019
Accurate automated quantitative Cobb angle estimation that quantitatively evaluates scoliosis plays an important role in scoliosis diagnosis and treatment. It solves the problem of the traditional manual method, which is the current clinical standard for scoliosis assessment, but time-consuming and unreliable. However, it is very challenging to achieve

Diurnal Variation of Cobb Angle Measurement in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

Spine, 1993
To 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, 2019
A 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.

Automated Cobb Angle Computation from Scoliosis Radiograph

2018
In this paper we propose a fully automatic technique for Cobb angle computation from Scoliosis radiograph image where the objectives are to have no user intervention and to increase the reliability of spinal curvature magnitude quantification. The automatic technique mainly comprises of four steps, namely: Preprocessing, ROI identification, Object ...

Correlation between Cobb Angle and Spinous Process Angle Measured from Ultrasound Data

Proceedings of the 2017 4th International Conference on Biomedical and Bioinformatics Engineering, 2017
The correlation between the Cobb angle and spinous process angle (SPA) measured from ultrasound data was analyzed in this study. The three-dimensional (3D) spine model was reconstructed by using a freehand 3D ultrasound imaging system. With non-planar volume rendering, the Cobb angle and SPA were measured by manually detecting anatomical landmarks of ...

A Computer-aided Cobb Angle Measurement Method and its Reliability

Journal of Spinal Disorders & Techniques, 2010
Development 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 ...

Prediction of Scoliotic Cobb Angle With the Use of the Scoliometer

Spine, 1996
A prospective study was conducted in a young homogenous adolescent population, with the use of the scoliometer.To create a mathematic formula that provides the accurate Cobb angle of idiopathic scoliosis with the use of the scoliometer only.The scoliometer is an accepted method for detection and evaluation of scoliosis during screening programs. To the

Surface Topography and Cobb Angles in Idiopathic Scoliosis

1999
Surface 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

Intra- and Interobserver Reliability of the Cobb Angle–Vertebral Rotation Angle–Spinous Process Angle for Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

Spine Deformity, 2014
A reliability analysis of Cobb angle, vertebral rotation (VR), and spinous process angle (SPA) measurements in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.To determine the intra- and interobserver reliability of semi-automated digital radiograph measurements.Cobb angle measurements on posteroanterior radiographs are commonly used to determine the severity of ...
