Abstract:
:Scoliosis, common in preadolescent females is a finding which warrants investigation in any other age group or if the clinical or neuroimaging features are atypical even in the preadolescent female. The cause of scoliosis are numerous but include several important conditions some of which are treatable and some of which are genetic. A rational approach to sequencing the neuroimaging studies to be used is based on what the clinical suspicions are and the results of the initial studies.
