Table 2 Median Pearson correlation coefficients (PCC) and interquartile ranges (IQR) between coronal asymmetry differences and coronal curvature of the reference ISL (first row) and shape of coronal curvature of the reference ISL (second row). Columns: All 30 patients, all patients with confirmed AIS (pCA ≥ 10°), patients with moderate AIS (pCA ≥ 25°), and patients with severe AIS (pCA ≥ 45°).

From: Noninvasive estimation of internal spinal alignment in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis using PCdare and back shape asymmetry
