Scoliosis
Introduction
Scoliosis is mainly manifested by the side of the spine bending to one side, making the back present a C-shaped or S-shaped curve. If the spine X-ray shows a lateral curvature of the spine greater than 10°, scoliosis can be diagnosed.
Why Choose China
Experienced Doctors
Statistics reveal that China has 60 million scoliosis patients, with an additional one million new cases each year. Experts estimate that over five million primary and secondary school students in China suffer from scoliosis, with this number rising by approximately 300,000 annually. Chinese doctors possess ample clinical experience in performing scoliosis surgeries.
Advanced Technologies
In screening, the radiation-free scoliosis portable device can compensate for the ‘low screening efficiency’ of the EOS (Whole Body Bone 3D Modelling and Imaging System) to a certain extent, and can largely solve the problem of mass screening of children for scoliosis in schools and communities. The full-scan spine scanner is capable of imaging from head to toe in approximately 20 seconds, with simultaneous anterior-posterior and lateral imaging. By applying post-processing algorithms, these images can be reconstructed in three dimensions, allowing for Cobb’s angle of spinal rotation as well as pelvic and lower limb line of force angle measurements for more accurate pre-operative assessment for clinical surgical judgement.
Fusotec Medical currently uses intelligent light sensing technology and terrain scanning technology for scoliosis treatment, which sends the data fused from multiple sensors to the cloud, and then simulates the three-dimensional data of the spine using certain algorithms.
In addition to diagnosis, modern technology, intelligent technology can also effectively empower the treatment session. Considering the feasibility of self-treatment, remote intelligent monitoring and evaluation may become the key technology in this link, through remote monitoring can assist doctors to understand the patient’s current treatment effect, the effectiveness of the exercise, and so on. At the same time, it can be used with position-direction sensors to build scenarios in which children engage in games, transforming passive training into active and enjoyable treatment.
In addition, new technologies such as ultra-low-dose, radiation-free imaging devices are also being used in recent years to address scoliosis.
Achievements
In 2023, Shanghai established the first Rare Spinal Scoliosis Diagnosis and Treatment Center in China. With robust support from both clinical and research teams, this center has successfully completed nearly 56 surgeries for rare spinal scoliosis without any cases of death or severe complications.
