Estimation of torsion

Journal of Applied Statistics, 1999, vol. 26, issue 3, 373-381

Abstract: Spinal deformity is a more common problem in children than is usually realized, and early diagnosis is highly desirable. One current measure of detection is quite crude, with an angle being taken by hand from X-rays. In this paper, we present some thoughts and exploratory results for assisting orthopaedic surgeons, by estimating torsion.
