Overview

Electromyography, nerve conduction velocity, pulmonary function studies, peak height velocity, and computerized photogrammetry may be helpful in the diagnosis of scoliosis.

Other Diagnostic Studies

Other diagnostic studies for scoliosis include electromyography (EMG), nerve conduction velocity (NCV), pulmonary function test (PFT), peak height velocity, and computerized photogrammetry.

Electromyography(EMG)

  • In literature, it has been demonstrated that changes in the EMG activity of the paraspinal muscles during the development and progression of the scoliotic curve.[1][2][3][4][5]
  • EMG of the paraspinal muscles are of value for predicting the progression in idiopathic scoliosis.
  • Increased EMG activity has been noted on the convex side of the scoliotic curve.
  • Higher amplitude of Motor unit Action potential (MUP) on the convexity side was the most prominent abnormal findings in our adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients.
  • The amplitude of MUPs correlates to the degree of scoliosis with no significant effect on progression of AIS curve according to the Cobb angle.
