Provide a Synopsis

Provide a synopsis (or cut and paste text from a word-processing file) in the space below. Minimum 10 words, maximum 100 words. Your synopsis should describe the purpose of the study (e.g. “The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of caffeine on SBC abstract quality”.).

This study sought to quantify the 3-dimensional intervertebral disc morphology in patients with Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis. We investigated the role of disc wedging and its contribution to the overall deformity of the spine. Additionally, the study quantified the correlation between nucleus pulposus displacement and disc wedging as well as nucleus pulposus displacement and the distance between the disc and the coronal C7 plumb line.
