Spinal growth velocity versus height velocity in predicting curve progression in peri-pubertal girls with idiopathic scoliosis

BACKGROUND: Height velocity (HV) is traditionally used to monitor the residual growth potential in idiopathic scoliosis (IS). The temporal timing of rapid increase in standing height often does not match exactly that of the increase in spine height. The purposes of this study were to analyze the cor...
