What is Full Spine X-ray (Scoliosis Survey)? Read the full explainer →

Full Spine X-ray (Scoliosis Survey)

This is a survey x-ray of the spine as a whole rather than one region of it — the entire thoracic and lumbar spine on the same image, and where relevant the skull base, neck and sacrum too, in two or three views. It is the standard way a sideways curve is measured, because measuring a curve requires seeing both of its ends at once.
