Abstract Purpose of Review While limited to case reports or small case series, emerging
evidence advocates the inclusion of smartphone-interfacing mobile platforms and wearable …

Introduction Adult spinal deformity (ASD) is classically evaluated by health-related quality of
life (HRQoL) questionnaires and static radiographic spino-pelvic and global alignment …

BACKGROUND CONTEXT Radiographic evaluation in adult spinal deformity (ASD) offers
no information on spinopelvic alignment and compensation during dynamic conditions …

Integrating functional evaluation of adult spinal deformity (ASD) patients is an integral
component of clinical evaluation. While the spine community has acknowledged its …

BACKGROUND CONTEXT Two-dimensional static radiography currently forms the golden
standard in spinal alignment measurement in adult spinal deformity (ASD). However, these …

Functional assessment is a key element in evaluating adult spinal deformity (ASD) patients.
The multitude of 3D kinematic parameters provided by movement analysis can be confusing …

Background Currently, the functional status of patients undergoing spine surgery is
assessed with quality-of-life questionnaires, and a more objective and quantifiable …

Study Design. Cross-sectional study. Objective. The aim of this study was to develop and
validate the Function Assessment scale for Spinal Deformity (FASD). Summary of …

Spinal alignment measurement in spinal deformity research has recently shifted from using
mainly two-dimensional static radiography toward skin marker-based motion capture …

Study design A longitudinal cohort study. Objective To define a set of objective
biomechanical metrics that are representative of adult spinal deformity (ASD) post-surgical …
