Atlas of Spinal Imaging: Phenotypes, Measurements and Classification Systems

Spine-related pain is the world's leading disabling condition, affecting every population and a frequent reason for seeking medical consultation and obtaining imaging studies. Numerous spinal phenotypes (observations/traits) and their respective measurements performed on various spine imaging have been shown to directly correlate and predict clinical outcomes. Atlas of Spinal Imaging: Phenotypes, Measurements and Classification Systems is a comprehensive visual resource that highlights various spinal phenotypes on imaging, describes their clinical and pathophysiological relevance, and discusses and illustrates their respective measurement techniques and classifications. Complies the knowledge and expertise of Dr. Dino Samartzis, the preeminent global authority on spinal phenotypes who has discovered and proposed new phenotypes and classification schemes; Dr. Howard S. An, a leading expert in patient management and at the forefront of 3D imaging of various spinal phenotypes; and Dr. Philip Louie, a young surgeon who is involved in one of the largest machine learning initiatives of spinal phenotyping. *Includes a Foreword by renowed spine surgeons Alexander Vaccaro and Max Aebi* INDICE:      Introduction to common spine imaging Section     Atlanto-Axial Cervical spine plain radiographs     Atlanto-Axial Cervical spine MRI   Atlanto-Axial Cervical spine CT        Clinical correlations to specific phenotypes and measurements with Classification Systems Section      Subaxial Cervical spine plain radiographs        Subaxial Cervical spine MRI        Subaxial Cervical spine CT       Clinical correlations to specific phenotypes and measurements with Classification Systems Section    Thoracic spine plain radiographs    Thoracic spine MRI    Thoracic spine CT    Clinical correlations to specific phenotypes and measurements with Classification Systems Section    Lumbar spine plain radiographs    Lumbar spine MRI    Lumbar spine CT    Clinical correlations to specific phenotypes and measurements with Classification Systems Section    Full-length spine imaging    Clinical correlations to specific phenotypes and measurements with Classification Systems
