NCT ID NCT06400680

First seen Apr 21, 2026 · Last updated May 06, 2026 · Updated 6 times

Summary

This study aims to create and test a new method for measuring how the spine and body move while walking, using special cameras and markers placed on the skin. Researchers will study 20 children—10 healthy and 10 with scoliosis (a curved spine)—to see if the method is reliable and easy to use. The goal is to improve how doctors assess spine problems during walking, not to treat or cure any condition.
