Where can I get my scoliosis x-ray looked at to obtain a degree of curve?
I have recently had a second x-ray to look at my thoracic scoliosis and was not given a degree of curve by the radiologist. He said that it is not needed! Is there somehow I can get the measurement another way? I am getting very frustrated with the way I am being dismissed by the medical profession.
Ask your referring doctor or chiropractor to ask the radiologist via phone call or fax for the degree of scoliosis. It is actually very easy to get that number, so I am unsure why the radiologist refused. Patients are more easily refused than another medical professional…..unfortunate, but true. Best wishes…..
