Abstract:Background: Ultrasound (US) imaging for scoliosis assessment is challenging for a non-experienced operator. The robotic scanning was developed to follow a spinal curvature with deep learning and apply consistent forces to the patient's back.
Methods:23 scoliosis patients were scanned with US device both, robotically and manually. Two human raters measured each subject's spinous process angles (SPA) on robotic and manual coronal images. Results: The robotic method showed high intra-(ICC > 0.85) and inter-rater … Show more
