From: Discrepancy in clinical versus radiological parameters describing deformity due to brace treatment for moderate idiopathic scoliosis

Figure 3

14 years and 5 months old girl, treated with Cheneau brace for 2.5 years, including 1.5 years full time and 1.0 year part time wearing. Thoracic Cobb angle 36°, lumbar Cobb angle 32°, Risser sign 4. Two years after menarche. Main curve ATR = 7°, sum of three ATRs = 13°, POTSI = 25.5, HS = 26. Raster stereography image in standing (top) and sitting forward bending (bottom) position. There is less clinical rotational deformity, comparing to the non-treated girl presented in the Figure 5, in spite of more pronounced radiological deformity, illustrated in the Figure 4, comparing to the radiological deformity of the non-treated girl, presented in the Figure 6.
