Study of 3D Scanning for Adolescent Scoliosis

Study Purpose

The investigators aim to validate three-dimensional topographical scanning technology as a tool for evaluation of scoliosis. Through the incorporation of 3D topographical technology in the measurement of deformity, the investigators hope to validate a novel approach to quantify deformity progression and provide an accessible alternative to traditional radiographic workup.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

Yes
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Observational
Eligible Ages 10 Years - 18 Years
Gender All
More Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • - Ages 10 and 18 years old.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • - Scoliosis caused by another condition (e.g., secondary scoliosis) - Parents/guardians unable to consent.
- English is not the primary language (to avoid miscommunication)

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT06035952
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Scoliosis
Additional Details

The study design will be prospective observational. Patients 10 to 18 years old being evaluated or followed for scoliosis will be included. Those unable to complete the consent and assent processes will not be enrolled. Members of the research team will review the clinic schedule through EPIC each week to identify eligible patients. Member of the patient's care team, such as the physician, will introduce the study to the patient. If the patient and the patient's caregivers are interested in learning more and/or participating, a member of the research team will provide study-related information and obtain informed consent via written or electronic consent, assent, and, if necessary, short form consent. If a patient consents to participate, members of the research team will conduct the 3D topographical scan in a private room in the clinic. This involves 360 degree scans using a smartphone camera. Participants will also receive any standard of care x-rays during the visit. The investigators will then analyze the ability of the 3D smartphone scan to estimate the Cobb Angle measured on the X-ray, to infer the magnitude of the scoliosis deformity.

Arms & Interventions

Arms

: Intervention

This study will have one cohort. This group of patients will undergo 3D scanning with a smartphone, and will also have standard of care diagnostics, such as an X-ray.

Interventions

Diagnostic Test: - 3D topographical scan

Subjects will undergo a quick, radiation-free, no contact 3D scan using a smartphone.
