Assessment of Thoracic Kyphosis Using Flexicurve Ruler after Open Heart Surgery: A Cross-Sectional Study

open access: yesJournal of Hunan University Natural Sciences, 2022
In literature, the development of spinal deformities was reported after surgical intervention for congenital heart disease using thoracotomy and sternotomy incisions in children; however, there are not enough data regarding the incidence of spinal kyphosis after open-heart surgery in adults.

Measurement of Spine Curvature using Flexicurve Integrated with Machine Vision

AHFE International, 2022
Many Spinal disorders require medication and prolonged rehabilitation, which consist of physical exercise and posture control. During restoration, frequent monitoring of spine curvature is necessary. The professionals do not suggest the radiography method more frequently since it has harmful effects on our bodies.

Comparing the reliability of the Goniometer Pro application and flexicurve for measuring thoracic kyphosis: a cross-sectional study

International Journal of Therapy and Rehabilitation, 2023
Aims/Background The most common spinal anomaly is thoracic kyphosis, which frequently occurs in adolescents and older people. The flexicurve is an instrument commonly used by physiotherapists to assess spinal curvature. However, advancing technology, particularly the rise of mobile applications, has resulted in the replacement of traditional methods ...

The Validity and Reproducibility of the Flexicurve in the Evaluation of Cervical Spine Lordosis

Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics, 2017
The purpose of this study was to measure the validity and reliability of flexicurve measurements of cervical curvature in the sagittal plane in adults.One hundred thirteen adults were assessed in the seated position with flexicurve radiographs. Two groups were measured: (1) the validity group (n = 55), and (2) the reliability group (n = 58).

Thoracic kyphosis assessment in postmenopausal women: an examination of the Flexicurve method in comparison to radiological methods

Osteoporosis International, 2019
The Flexicurve ruler is an alternative method to radiographs for measuring thoracic kyphosis (curvature), but it is not certain that it is comparable. This study shows that Flexicurve can estimate radiographic vertebral centroid angles with less error than Cobb angles but that its accuracy would be inadequate for most clinical purposes.The Flexicurve ...

Sagittal Skin Contour of the Cervical Spine: Interexaminer and Intraexaminer Reliability of the Flexicurve Instrument

Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics, 2005
To evaluate reliability of a simple instrument, the flexicurve, in determining cervical sagittal skin contour.This study obtained repeated random measurements involving 3 investigators and 30 subjects once per day over a 2-day trial period. Thirty normal subjects were examined for cervical spine skin contour twice by 3 separate investigators with a 1 ...

FlexiCurve: Flexible Piecewise Curves Estimation for Photo Retouching

2023 IEEE/CVF Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition Workshops (CVPRW), 2023
This paper presents a new method, called FlexiCurve, for photo retouching. Unlike most existing methods that perform image-to-image mapping, which requires expensive pixel-wise reconstruction, FlexiCurve takes an input image and estimates global curves ...
