Scoliosis of the thoracic spine. Digitally enhanced 3D computed tomography (CT) scans of the alignment of the thoracic spine seen in cases of scoliosi


Scoliosis of the thoracic spine. Digitally enhanced 3D computed tomography (CT) scans of the alignment of the thoracic spine seen in cases of scoliosis (sideways curvature). The treatment of scoliosis depends on the cause. Treatment ranges from corrective back braces to surgical intervention to straighten the spine.
