Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2007110300A1] A device for measuring the profile of the spinal column is described, which comprises means (9) for continuously measuring the profile of the spinal column, and means for continuously measuring changes in the profile of the spinal column during movement along the entire spinal column in all degrees of freedom of its deformation. In addition, the invention describes a sensor for use in such a device, a sensor element for such a sensor, and a method for continuously measuring the profile of the spinal column and changes in the profile of the spinal column during movement along the entire spinal column in all degrees of freedom of its deformation.
