Evaluation of Paravertebral Muscle Structure Asymmetry in Idiopathic Scoliosis Using Imaging Techniques
In IS patients, the paravertebral muscles on the concave side are more prominent and exhibit more fat infiltration compared to those on the convex side. This fat infiltration positively correlates with the Cobb angle, scoliosis duration, body mass index, and age, possibly indicating scoliosis progression.
