Abstract | The objective of this study is to investigate whether three dimensional (3D) variability exists within the Lenke classification, and to evaluate the correlations between the 3D features and the Cobb angle used in the Lenke classification. Forty-nine scoliotic patients with Lenke Type 1 curve were selected for analysis. For each patient, the 3D spine model was reconstructed from biplanar radiographs, and the geometric torsion was then calculated from the reconstructed spine model. An analysis of variance (ANOVA) was performed regarding the average torsion, the maximum torsion, and the Cobb angle, with the patients subdivided according to the torsion pattern. Results showed that a statistically significant difference was observed for the torsion parameters (i.e., the average torsion and the maximum torsion) between subgroups within the Lenke Type 1 curves while no statistically significant difference was found regarding the Cobb angle. The strengths of correlations between the torsion parameters and Cobb angle were stronger in the subgroup with torsion pattern of Type A. These results add the evidence that 3D geometric torsion reveals structural differences that are not apparent in the Cobb measurement. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
