METHOD OF EARLY DIAGNOSTICS OF CAUSES OF SCOLIOSIS IN CHILDREN Russian patent published in 2023 - IPC A61B5/00 A61B6/00 

FIELD: medicine; pediatric orthopedics.

SUBSTANCE: invention is intended for early diagnostics of the causes of scoliosis in children. During a visual examination from the back, the symmetry of the waist lines is assessed, asymmetries in the musculoskeletal system are tested, for example, such asymmetries as displacement of articular surfaces in the joints of the cervical spine, the difference in the length of the lower extremities, the strength of the long extensors of the back; for each of the identified asymmetries, a virtual scoliosis scheme is selected and a total virtual scoliosis is constructed in such a way that the angles of inclination of the virtual scoliosis directed in the same direction are summed up, and those directed in the opposite direction are subtracted; a visual comparison is made between the line of the total virtual scoliosis and the line of scoliosis obtained during the examination; after the final coincidence of the total virtual and real scoliosis, personalized correction is carried out to eliminate the causes of the identified asymmetries.

EFFECT: method provides correction of all the identified asymmetries and eliminates all the causes of scoliosis in a child.
