“…Another method, which is currently less popular, but also non-invasive is surface topography (ST). This method allows vertebral orientation recording in 3D 15 , 17 . It is important to mention that the use of ST technology does not expose the patient to harmful radiation, unlike X-Ray 15 , 17 , 18 .…”

“…Its advantage is that it can be carried out in both static and dynamic situations, where patient moves for the examination purposes 17 , 18 , 20 . This allows various kinematic patterns to be assessed in three dimensions 17 . It can also be considered a valuable screening tool as it is non-invasive, not harmful, so the examinations can be repeated numerous times 15 , 17 , 19 .…”

In recent times, widely understood spine diseases have advanced to one of the most urgetn problems where quick diagnosis and treatment are needed. To diagnose its specifics (e.g. to decide whether this is a scoliosis or sagittal imbalance) and assess its extend, various kind of imaging diagnostic methods (such as X-Ray, CT, MRI scan or ST) are used. However, despite their common use, some may be regarded as (to a level) invasive methods and there are cases where there are contraindications to using them. Besides, which is even more of a problem, these are very expensive methods and whilst their use for pure diagnostic purposes is absolutely valid, then due to their cost, they cannot rather be considered as tools which would be equally valid for bad posture screening programs purposes. This paper provides an initial evaluation of the alternative approach to the spine diseases diagnostic/screening using inertial measurement unit and we propose policy-based computing as the core for the inference systems. Although the methodology presented herein is potentially applicable to a variety of spine diseases, in the nearest future we will focus specifically on sagittal imbalance detection.
