Background
Back surface topography has gained acceptance in recent decades. At the same time,
the motivation to use this technique has increased. From the view of the patient,
the cosmetic aspect has played and still plays a major role as it provides a comprehensive
documentation of cosmetic impairment. From the view of the medical practitioner, the
aspect of reducing X-ray exposures in diagnosis and follow-up has been dominant and
still prevails. Meanwhile, new aspects have emerged: due to the consequent three-dimensional
view of the scoliotic condition, treatment success can be visualized convincingly.
Clinical diagnosis is supported by information otherwise not supplied by X-rays, such
as when functional examinations and diagnostic tests are recorded.
