Scoliosis: Fulcrum & Lateral Bending

By

What I know so far:

Lateral bending shows the nature of the scoliosis whether it's structural and non-structural. It also shows the rigidity of the spine and determines how successful reduction of the spine will be.

Fulcrum view places a bolster (cylinder) at the apex of the curve. Besides this, I cannot find enough information on the benefits of this view and what information it provides for orthos or radiologists.

I have a few questions:

Why bend both ways for the lateral bending? What exactly does the fulcrum bending view show? How does these images change/aid in orthos planning for corrective surgery Thanks!

Onetonline salary search change?

By
Did this change? I am having a hard time finding the same lists I saw 2 months ago. https://www.onetonline.org/link/summary/29-2034.00#AdditionalInformation https://www.onetonline.org/link/localwages/29-2034.00?st=OR&p=hourly I used to be able to see wage by area and sort it by state and see the differences per state and per city in every state. I can't seem to find this same list anymore. I can see a bell curve but I can't sort by state or wage or anything. Thanks! submitted by /u/xxDamnationxx [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/h9oqup/onetonline_salary_search_change/
