Letter to the editor concerning: "a comprehensive review of thoracic deformity parameters in scoliosis" by Jonathan A. Harris, Oscar H. Mayer, Suken A. Shah, Robert M. Campbell Jr., Sriram Balasubramanian. Eur Spine J (2014) 23:2594-2602, DOI 10.1007/s00586-014-3580-8.

Abstract

In this letter to the Editor, an additional radiological thoracic deformity parameter is described, which was not included in the review, namely the rib index (RI). The index and its usefulness of its application are described, both in the clinical praxis and in the aetiology of idiopathic scoliosis. The pertinent literature is also sited.
