Abstract

This was a reliability assessment of patients who underwent magnetically controlled growing rod (MCGR) treatment with EOS imaging. Most parameters have near perfect reliability except for the sagittal parameters which may limit the ability of investigators to detect complications like proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK).
