Conditions

Scoliosis

Brief summary

The purpose of this research is to investigate the reliability and validity of a new device similar to a scoliometer. The intended name of the device will be Scolioscope

Detailed description

Οne cohort of participants will be used and the reliability of the equipment will be used to test/retest the repeatability of the measurements The validity will be measured against a gold standard for measuring angles

Interventions

DEVICEScoliometer (scolioscope)

Individuals with scoliosis will participate in this study. The device will be used to determine spinal rotation on the transverse plane. Repeated measures will be taken.
