Study summary

What is the relationship between frontal and axial back asymmetric parameters with self body image in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis Age This study will investigate the relationship between frontal and axial back asymmetry with self body image in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis Delimitations : patients will be diagnosed by orthopedic surgeon with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis Delimitations Age 11 to 18 years BMI fron 20 to 24.9kg/m2 Moderate cobbs angle 25-45 degrees Major thoacic curve Self body image will be ass by TAPS questionnaire which evaluate self image and satisfaction

Groups and cohorts

  • One group - adolescent idiopathic scoliosis

    Measure frontal and axial back asymmetry by BACKSCNR with self body image by TAPS questionnaire

    Device: BACKSCNR , measure the deviations of frontal and axial back asymmetry in AIS

Interventions

  • DeviceBACKSCNR , measure the deviations of frontal and axial back asymmetry in AIS

    BACKSCNR is a non-invasive surface topography device designed to assess spinal deformities, particularly scoliosis. It uses optical scanning technology to capture the three-dimensional shape of the back without radiation exposure.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Frontal plane back asymmetry

    Frontal plane back asymmetry will be measured using BACKSCNR. The device quantifies deviations of the trunk in the frontal plane. Higher values indicate greater asymmetry.

    Time frame: At baseline

  2. Axial trunk deviations

    Axial trunk deviations will be measured using BACKSCNR. The device quantifies rotational deviations of the trunk in the transverse plane. Higher values indicate greater asymmetry.

    Time frame: At baseline

  3. Self-perceived body image (TAPS questionnaire)

    Self-body image will be assessed using the Trunk Appearance Perception Scale (TAPS), a validated questionnaire for individuals with scoliosis. The TAPS measures the patient's subjective perception of trunk deformity in different views. Scores range from 1 to 5, with lower scores indicating a perception of greater deformity and higher scores indicating a perception closer to normal trunk appearance.

    Time frame: At baseline
