Inter-variability in Radiographic Fluoroscopic Technique in Patients With Idiopathic Scoliosis

NCT05673473 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 342

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Radiographical images in Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) can have a potential radiation-induced oncogenic effect. In this study, the investigators aim to compare a fluoroscopic imaging technique (LFT) with traditional radiographs for scoliosis (ORT), to see if LFT is adequate for clinical evaluation of AIS and having a lower radiation dose.

Method Image quality will evaluated for LTF and ORT of phantom images and images from 3D printed models of AIS. The investigators will measure primary physical characteristics of noise, contrast, spatial resolution, SNR, and CNR. Three independent raters will evaluate the images by observer-based methods of ICS and VGAS. Radiation doses will be evaluated by DAP measurements. Two raters will perform measurements of 6 radiographic parameters for the LFT images of AIS
