Data Mining in Medicine: Relationship of Scoliotic Spine Curvature to the Movement Sequence of Lateral Bending Positions
ADVANCES IN DATA MINING: APPLICATIONS AND THEORETICAL ASPECTS(2016)
摘要
We aim to determine relationships between scoliotic spine curvatures in movement sequence from left bending to erect to right bending positions in the frontal plane. A multi-body kinematic modelling approach is utilized to reconstruct the curvatures and study the relationships. The spine is considered as a chain of micro-scale motion-segments (MMSs). Linear regression method is adopted to identify relationships between angles of MMSs in erect and lateral bending positions. Excellent linear relationships (R2 = 0.93 ± 0.09) were identified between angles of MMSs placed between each two successive vertebrae. We showed that these relationships give good estimates of the curvatures (Root-mean-square-error = 0.0172 ± 0.0114 mm) and the key parameters for scoliosis surgery planning; estimation errors for Cobb angle, spinal mobility, and flexibility were 0.0016 ± 0.0122°, 0.0010 ± 0.086°, and 0.0002 ± 0.0002 respectively. This paper provides an important insight: scoliotic spine curvatures in lateral bending positions and the key parameters for surgery planning can be predicted using spine curvature in erect position.
