About this trial
Due to advancements in technology, Posture-Analyzing and Virtual Reconstructing (PAViR) systems were developed. They used Red-Green-Blue-Depth camera sensors and artificial intelligence to evaluate human posture alignment, muscle balance, and movement without the use of radiation or physical markers. This technology served as a portable, X-ray-like device that was safe and user-friendly, providing detailed views of bone and muscle models alongside easy-to-understand 3D visualizations. However, how to utilize the data obtained from PAViR to support traditional treatment remained unclear. To fill this gap, this study aimed to investigate the effects of AI-based postural feedback on posture correction in patients with idiopathic scoliosis.
