What tests are needed for scoliosis? The first one is a physical examination. We need to see if his two shoulders are equally flat, if his back is equally flat. What are the changes in his walking posture? The second is that we need to do imaging tests, and the most important imaging test is to take x-rays. This x-ray has special requirements. It is necessary to take a standing, full frontal and lateral spine film. The first point is to take the film in a standing position so that it can accurately reflect the severity of scoliosis. The second is to take an x-ray of the entire spine, including the skull and pelvis, so that we can see where the real curvature of the spine is. Usually, many patients have their films taken one by one in some hospitals. For example, a thoracic spine or a lumbar spine is taken. This kind of film is not qualified, and it is not possible to look at the scoliosis of the spine as a whole. What if surgery is needed? There may also need to do MRI and 3D CT examinations, these MRI and 3D CT examinations of course also need to do the whole spine to be able to.
