From: A new method for measuring torsional deformity in scoliosis

Figure 2

Anterior component rotated more than posterior component. The rotation angle measured by the new method (13.9 ± 6.8 (mean ± SD) degrees) is significantly larger than the rotation angle measured by Ho's method (7.9 ± 6.3 degrees). (B) This discrepancy of rotation between anterior and posterior components (6.1 ± 3.9 degrees) represents the spinal torsional deformity. **p < 0.001
