Overview
Faculty
Sagittal plane measurements are now recognized as being important radiographic parameters across
numerous spinal pathologies.
Faisal A. J. Al-Otaibi, Dr.
KSA
Despite multiple publications on the relevance of sagittal plane evaluation for spinal pathologies, there
is still a great deal of confusion when it comes to applying ‘established’ guidelines in a clinical setting.
The objective of this two day course is to demonstrate that sagittal plane measurements, far from
being an academic exercise, are less complex than it may seem, and could be applied as part of routine
clinical evaluation.
