Comparison of Dynamic Radiographs in Determining Fusion Level in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis Correction

NCT03296228 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 134

Last updated 2020-05-06

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to identify the flexibility radiograph(s) that can most accurately predict the curve behaviour after surgical correction of AIS. With these findings, the investigators hope to give further guidance for the selection of fusion levels and to incorporate different dynamic radiographs into the Lenke Classification, leading to a more universal application that can consistently lead to good surgical and clinical outcome.
