INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

A study of the skeletal structure and how the structure changes over time. The aim of the study is to evaluate the skeleton in 10 year increments to determine an understanding of the normal skeleton as a person ages. By using x-ray analysis, a new low dose x-ray system (EOS) can be used to evaluate the whole body to see changes in the bone structure over time. Subjects will be asked to undertake one x-ray analysis of their whole body skeletal structure. There will be 25 male and 25 female subjects per decade. The averaging of the measured skeletal parameters will provide information on changes over time generating a standardized expectation of general changes in skeletal structure as participants age.


Eligibility

Interventions

RADIATIONEOS imaging

The EOS imaging system will be utilized to obtain full-body radiographs in frontal and sagittal projections obtained in the upright standing position. Measurements will include a coronal plumb-line, sagittal vertebral axis (SVA), external auditory meatus plumb-line, cervical lordosis, thoracic kyphosis, lumbar lordosis, hip flexion/extension, knee flexion/extension, ankle flexion/extension, T1 tilt, T1 spino-pelvic instance, acetabular index, pelvic tilt (PT), pelvic incidence (PI), and sacral slope (SS).
