Current Reviews in Musculoskeletal Medicine, 2011 Pediatric scoliosis is a relatively uncommon condition typically first noticed due to altered stature or by routine spine screenings by a school nurse or pediatrician. The formal diagnosis is made with spine radiographs, with coronal curvature measurement of 10° or greater.

Sportlogia, 2015 In the course of growth and development, affected by various internal and external factors, various postural disorders may occur, especially in school-age children. Scoliosis is defined as a lateral curvature of the spinal column in the coronal plane, but the disorder actually occurs in three dimensions.

Archives of Disease in Childhood, 2000 Editor,—I read with interest the article “Imaging in scoliosis”. In addition to the radiological techniques described, I would include surface shape measurement as a simple, safe, repeatable, and clinically relevant assessment. Associated with the bony deformity there is a cosmetic problem; indeed, idiopathic scoliosis is primarily a cosmetic disorder.

Effectiveness of Schroth exercises during bracing in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: Results from a preliminary study - SOSORT Award 2017 Winner [PDF]
, 2017 Background: Bracing has been shown to decrease significantly the progression of high-risk curves to the threshold for surgery in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS), but the treatment failure rate remains high.
