Medical image analysis for three-dimensional reconstruction in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: Imaging inputs, reconstruction methods, validation evidence, and research gaps.

Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a complex three-dimensional (3D) spinal deformity. Although standing full-spine radiography remains the cornerstone of clinical diagnosis and longitudinal follow-up, two-dimensional projections cannot fully characterize vertebral rotation, local osseous geometry, or global spati...
