Scoliosis, a condition in which the spine develops abnormal curvature and rotation, typically is diagnosed before adulthood. Scoliosis can be caused by another medical condition or can be idiopathic. Medical imaging is essential in diagnosing and grading the severity of this disorder. Treatments include anti-inflammatory drugs, body braces, and corrective surgical procedures. To provide high-quality patient care, radiologic technologists should understand spinal anatomy, classifications of scoliosis, and treatment options.
