Abstract: (1356 Views)
Background: Long-term ionizing radiation exposure is a risk to young scoliosis patients. A new slot-scanning imaging system, “EOS imaging” has been shown, in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, to emit significantly lower levels of ionizing radiation. This is a single-center, preliminary report of radiographic assessment by a new system.
