Comparison of Observer Variation in Conventional and Three Digital Radiographic Methods Used in the Evaluation of Patients With Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis
Spine, 04/07/2008
Mok J et al. - Measurements made on conventional and digital radiographs using manual and computer-based techniques have similar good to excellent interobserver reliability. Interobserver reliability was lower for digital radiographs when printed onto 2 unstitched films. The results suggest that different observers will obtain similar measurements when viewing the same image, but care should be taken when interpreting images printed on 2 unstitched films.
