Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The accuracy of the spinal measurements, obtained with electronic and conventional calipers will be compared to the results obtained from x-rays taken of shoulder and hip areas. Only one x-ray of the shoulder and one x-ray of the hip will be taken of each participant. X-rays represent the clinically accepted standard of obtaining spinal measurements.
The data will analyzed statistically to determine sources of variation among the methods of spinal measurement described above.
