About Scolioscan®
What is the 3D Scoliosis Scan?
What is the 3D Scoliosis Scan?
Unlike X-rays, which use ionizing radiation to take a flat 2D picture of the bones, our system uses 3D Ultrasound Imaging. This is the same safe technology used to monitor babies in the womb.
It generates a three-dimensional model of the spine, measuring not just the curvature (Cobb angle) but also the spinal rotation and the surrounding muscle balance. This provides a much richer, more detailed picture of your back health than a standard X-ray, with an accuracy rate comparable to traditional methods.
Radiation-Free Monitoring for Precise Spinal Management
Radiation-Free Monitoring for Precise Spinal Management
We believe that effective therapy must be measurable. However, the traditional medical standard—one X-ray per year—is often insufficient for managing active scoliosis, yet increasing X-ray frequency carries radiation risks.
We bridge this gap by introducing the Scolioscan®, the world’s first and only radiation-free 3D ultrasound scoliosis assessment system. This cutting-edge technology allows us to monitor your spine's
condition frequently and safely, providing the data we need to tailor your treatment program perfectly.
Why Choose This Over/With X-Ray?
Why Choose This Over/With X-Ray?
We are not replacing your orthopedic surgeon; we are filling the "data void" between your annual hospital visits.
100% Radiation-Free Safety: You can scan as often as needed without any cancer risk or health concerns. This is crucial for children and adolescents whose spines are still growing.
True 3D Analysis: Scoliosis is a 3-dimensional deformity. We assess the rotation of the vertebrae and the profile of the back muscles, which 2D X-rays often miss.
Frequent Monitoring: Curves can progress at 1-2 degrees per month during growth spurts. Our scan allows for monthly or quarterly checks, ensuring we catch any deterioration immediately rather than waiting a year.
Posture Flexibility: Unlike X-rays which are
static, we can assess the spine in different postures to test flexibility.
Suitable For Whom?
Suitable For Whom?
- Adolescents (AIS): Teenagers going through growth spurts who need close monitoring to prevent worsening curves.
- Scoliosis Patients in Therapy: To objectively track if your exercise or osteopathy plan is working.
- Health-Conscious Parents: Who want to screen their children for spinal issues without exposing them to radiation.
- Adults with Chronic Back Pain: To analyze if spinal rotation or muscle asymmetry is the root cause of the pain.
