EOS® imaging is a proprietary imaging technology that was launched in 2007. Based on a gaseous particle detector with a multi-wire proportional chamber, it offers several advantages over other imaging modalities: low dose of radiation, ability to create 3D reconstructions, ability to conduct whole body imaging, high reproducibility in measuring various parameters of alignment and faster imaging time. EOS® imaging is slowly gaining widespread acceptance as its applications in various disorders continue to evolve. It has been found to be particularly useful and has opened up new avenues of research in the field of spinal deformities. This narrative review seeks to provide an overview of the proprietary technology behind EOS® imaging, compare it to existing imaging modalities, summarize its current applications in various spinal disorders and outline its limitations.
EOS®成像技术是一项于2007年推出的专有成像技术。基于带有多丝正比室的气体粒子探测器,它相对于其他成像方式具有多个优势:辐射剂量低、能够进行三维重建、能够进行全身成像、在测量各种对线参数方面具有高重复性以及成像时间更快。随着EOS®成像技术在各种疾病中的应用不断发展,它正逐渐获得广泛认可。已发现它特别有用,并为脊柱畸形领域开辟了新的研究途径。本叙述性综述旨在概述EOS®成像技术背后的专有技术,将其与现有成像方式进行比较,总结其在各种脊柱疾病中的当前应用,并概述其局限性。
