Article Abstract
Scoliosis is curvature of the spine, often found in adolescents, which can impact on their quality of life. In recent years, smartphone applications (apps) and web-based applications may help the parents with the doctors' supervision in scoliosis screening and monitoring, thereby reducing the number of in-person visits. This paper suggests the usage of the SCOLIOSIS system to detect the onset of scoliosis. This tool is being developed for simple use on mobile devices and as a web-based monitoring system for doctors, which will be an interactive tool for the patients and doctors that will provide data, information, and knowledge. The study conducts a usability assessment of the mobile application by doctors and non-clinician users. User test application developed for the android platform and the results show that this has the potential to be applied in medical practice.

Assessing the knowledge of sports medicine physicians on idiopathic scoliosis: a national survey.
Eur Spine J
September 2025
Istanbul University, Istanbul Faculty of Medicine, Department of Sports Medicine, Istanbul, Turkey.
Background: Sports medicine physicians, like pediatricians and family physicians, are among the professionals who have the opportunity to assess healthy adolescents and conduct pre-participation evaluations. They can play a critical role in the early diagnosis of scoliosis and in ensuring that patients remain physically active and participate in sports activities. This study aims to evaluate the frequency of scoliosis assessment and the knowledge of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) among sports medicine physicians in Türkiye.

Department of Orthopedics and Sports Medicine, Erasmus MC, University Medical Center Rotterdam, Dr Molewaterplein 40, 3015 GD, Rotterdam, The Netherlands.
Purpose: Screening for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) using the Adam Forward Bending Test (AFBT) remains controversial, resulting in the discontinuation of scoliosis screening in the Netherlands. This study aims to validate the Scolioscope, a simplified version of the Scoliometer, for detecting scoliosis in a home setting.
Methods: A validation study was conducted at the orthopedic outpatient clinic of Erasmus Medical Center Sophia Children's Hospital in Rotterdam, the Netherlands.

Background: Stickler syndrome (STL) is a group of related connective tissue disorders characterized by heterogeneous clinical presentations with varying degrees of orofacial, ocular, skeletal, and auditory abnormalities. However, this condition is difficult to diagnose on the basis of clinical features because of phenotypic variability. Thus, expanding the variant spectrum of this disease will aid in achieving a firm definitive diagnosis of STL.

Department of Biomedical Engineering, National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University, Taipei, Taiwan.
Purpose: This study aims to address the limitations of radiographic imaging and single-task learning models in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis assessment by developing a noninvasive, radiation-free diagnostic framework.
Methods: A multi-task deep learning model was trained using structured back surface data acquired via fringe projection three-dimensional imaging. The model was designed to simultaneously predict the Cobb angle, curve type (thoracic, lumbar, mixed, none), and curve direction (left, right, none) by learning shared morphological features.

Department of Orthopaedics, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Rishikesh, India.
Case: A 12-year-old girl with neurofibromatosis type 1 presented with progressive thoracic scoliosis and neurological deficit. Imaging revealed a dystrophic curve, dorsal syrinx, and tethering of the cord by a plexiform neurofibroma arising from the T7 dorsal ramus. She underwent staged surgery: detethering through T6-T8 laminectomy, followed by posterior spinal deformity correction with Schwab type 2 osteotomies and instrumentation.
