Abstract: Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis is the most ordinary pediatric spinal disease that causes a three-dimensional deformity. Early detection of this potentially progressive deformity is considered crucial. The purpose of the present study was to report the potential for accurately diagnosis of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis using a newly developed, automated, noninvasive asymmetry-recognition system for the surface of the human back using a three-dimensional depth sensor. We included 170 subjects with suspected adolescent idiopathic scoliosis in this study. Outcomes measured included patient demographics, Cobbe angles from radiographic measurements, and asymmetry indexes. The coefficient of correlation between the asymmetry index and the Cobb angle was 0.85. For the prediction of scoliosis >10 degrees, the area under the curve was 0.98, sensitivity was 0.97, specificity was 0.93, positive predictive value was 0.99, negative predictive value was 0.72, accuracy was 0.97, positive likelihood ratio was 13.55, and negative likelihood ratio was 0.04. The posterior test probability for the positive screen >10 degrees was 98.9% if the asymmetry index was >1.268, three times in a row. This novel system automatically evaluated the back asymmetry. Therefore, this study demonstrates the outstanding discriminative ability of this newly developed system for deciding whether an examinee should undergo additional radiography to define scoliosis. This system can be used as an alternative to the forward bend test and scoliometer measurement in clinics. Future studies should seek to confirm these findings in a larger group and involve mass school scoliosis screening programs within the context of a multicenter trial.
