It highlights how important it is to detect scoliosis early and take steps to keep the spine healthy. Understanding Scoliosis: An Overview Scoliosis is a condition where the spine curves sideways instead of being straight, often during childhood or teenage years. While most cases of scoliosis are...
The present invention relates to a three-dimensional ultrasonic imaging method used for evaluation of scoliosis. The method of detecting the deformation of the spinal column by three-dimensional ultrasonic imaging includes step S1 of acquiring a three-dimensional image of the spinal column with a ...
There is evidence from a broad array of studies that most participants want to be offered the opportunity to receive trial results, ranging from 88 to 98% in studies conducted across a range of diseases (cancers, idiopathic scoliosis, internal derangement of the knee, HIV) and geographical setti...
The human immune system is designed to detect, mark, and destroy pathogens that have entered the body. This is largely done through the action of antibodies that are produced for specific diseases. These antibodies help identify foreign substances to the immune system and mark them for destruction...
Electromyography: This involves the insertion of thin needles into a muscle to detect its functioning. Muscle biopsy: The physician removes muscle cells through a needle or by making a small cut in your child’s skin. Imaging tests: Computed tomography (CT) scan or magnetic resonance imaging (...

B) What is an MRI scan used to diagnose? C) How long does an MRI scan take? Role of Physics in Medicine: Experimental research in physics is used to develop medical instruments to check various things. For instance, the proper understanding of...
The aim of our study was to determine the relationship between Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ) scores—a simple, validated depression screening tool—and Scoliosis Research Society (SRS)-22 questionnaire scores in patients with idiopathic scoliosis (IS).
