From: In idiopathic scoliosis distances of spinal cord to thoracic pedicle are within 2 mm in a large region of the thoracic apex

Figure 2

Pedicle to spinal cord distance of the concave (lower part of the graph) and convex side (upper part of the graph) throughout the Cobb angle. Patients are represented with different colors. Some lines are shorter because the vertebra lies outside the thoracic spine or the vertebrae at the upper and low limits of the curve are within a range fewer than four levels above and below the apex.
