Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: Completed
Study Type: Interventional
Official Title: Traditional Cobb Angle Measurement of Kyphosis and Scoliosis Using Lunar IDXA
Brief Summary: Measurement of bone length in subjects diagnosed with kyphosis and scoliosis using the Lunar iDXA x-ray scan.
Detailed Summary: To determine if bone density scanning (DEXA) and the use of a computer software program can make accurate measurements of the curvature(s) of the spine (Cobb angle)in patients with kyphosis and scoliosis compared to x-rays of the spine.
