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

What this trial studies

This observational study compares measured frontal and axial back asymmetry with self-reported body image in adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis. BACKSCNR imaging will quantify frontal and axial deviations while curve severity is recorded by Cobb angle and self body image is measured using the TAPS questionnaire. Eligible participants are ambulatory 11–18-year-olds with BMI 20–24.9 kg/m2 and a major thoracic curve with Cobb angle 25–45 degrees; exclusions include leg length discrepancy, vertebral defects, prior spine or lower-extremity surgery, or significant mental health conditions. All assessments take place at the Faculty of Physical Therapy, Al Hayah University in New Cairo.
