AI system for analyzing spinal deformities

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study aims to develop and validate an AI-powered system called AlignProCARE to assist clinicians in diagnosing and assessing spinal deformities. The approach involves collecting radiographs and nude back images from patients with various spinal conditions across multiple centers in Malaysia, China, and Japan. By automating the landmark placement process, the system seeks to reduce variability and improve the accuracy of spine alignment assessments. The study will also involve follow-up imaging to refine the AI model further.
