Sažetak
Today it is possible to measure human body with completely non-invasive devices [1, 2, 3, 4] but there is no widely used method for quick, accurate and non-invasive evaluation of spine.[5, 6, 7, 8].Another problem is the fact that such patient should be transported in some specialized center where the appropriate therapeutic solution could be obtained, and where there are technical and medical resources. This work presents the idea, already supported with published work of other authors, of using 3D optical scanning system for evaluating of spine deformities and asymmetry. Considering the fact that commercially available devices for 3D scanning are very expensive, the possibility to scan human body with cameras from several directions and make the reconstruction of body shape seems very promising and competitive. The reconstructed model can be measured with the computer aid which gives tool for quick and quality follow up of shape change through time, and comparison before and after applied therapy. The system could also offer a possibility to design and produce high quality spine orthotics, or highly comfortable and individually adjusted spine supports.
