Abstract (en)

[origin: WO03073946A1] The invention relates to a method of viewing and controlling the balance of a vertebral column of which one spinal segment is corrected by means of conventional spinal instrumentation. The inventive method consists in: determining and calculating the relative three-dimensional position of the upper (UEV) and lower (LEV) end instrumented vertebrae of the corrected spinal segment; determining and calculating the position of the spinal segments which are located above and below the spinal segment corrected by the spinal instrumentation, according to the relative three-dimensional position of the upper (UEV) and lower (LEV) end instrumented vertebrae; and viewing the front and side projection of the balance or imbalance of the vertebral column.
