Topics:
- Low Back Pain
- Deformities and Compression Syndromes

In this course spinal deformities will cover all aspects. Most of the topics will be treated from basic to moderate level.
At the end of the course we would expect the participants be able to understand the basic aspects of deformity, read x-rays and measure Cobb angles in both planes, understand treatment modalities, complications related to the treatment of deformities given at the “best evidence level”.
