An automatic computer imaging system for recording body surface topography has been developed on a microcomputer-based image processing system. The computer processes fringe patterns generated on the surface of the trunk and reconstructs the complete 3-dimensional form of the surface. From the topographic reconstruction, clinical parameters of scoliotic deformity such as Angle of Trunk Inclination are calculated at a number of levels from the upper thoracic to the sacral region. These multiple level measurements illustrate the change in deformity over the trunk and correspond to measurements obtained using conventional tactile devices on patients.
