High-Tech cameras reveal hidden walking changes in spine curvature
NCT ID NCT03536403
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a special camera system (Vicon) to see how a curved spine (kyphosis) changes the way people walk. 36 healthy men wore a corset to temporarily create a curved spine, and the cameras measured their balance and movement. The goal was to see if this system could detect walking problems that regular X-rays miss.
