Figure Lengend Snippet: Visual representation of the The Epionics SPINE ® system and Idiag M360 ® measurement. ( A ) Epionics SPINE ® affixed to a volunteer’s back in standing. The system consists of two flexible sensor strips utilizing strain-gauge sensors, tri-axial accelerometers and a storage unit. The total lordosis angle is the sum of all lordotically curved Epionics SPINE ® segments during standing. ( B ) Measurement with Idiag M360 ® from the spinous process of the seventh cervical vertebrae until the gluteal fold.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Agreement of the non-invasive devicement measurement with Schober test. ( A ) Agreement of Schober (cm) test with Epionics SPINE ® and ( B ) Schober test (cm) with Idiag M360 ® Lumbar RoF (°) in the matched cohorts. White area: ( A ) Epionics SPINE ® or ( B ) Idiag M360 ® measurements and the Schober test indicate low mobility (lower left) or high mobility (upper right). Light gray area: results of both measurements, Epionics SPINE ® and Idiag M360 ® and Schober test, do not match. RoF range of flexion, cm centimeter. RoF reference for good lumbar mobility: Epionics SPINE ® = 40.8°; Idiag M360 ® = 46.04°.
