Hi I am Bryan. The idea of this project came from my unexpected diagnosis of low-to-moderate scoliosis in March 2023 when I was getting an X-ray check up for an incidence of pneumothorax. Shocked by the news, I delved into scoliosis learned that as many as 3% of teenagers globally has scoliosis and not everyone detects it early due to the inconvenience of taking X-ray or lack of early detection equipment and programs (during covid), etc.  And the best time for correction is before end of puberty, so early detection is key. Sadly, I have already missed my best time for correction. I would need to rely on treatment to prevent the condition from getting worse.  

 

Scoliosis AI is the initiative that I started to make sure my situation does not happen to other teenagers especially those from less resourceful community.
