Momentum Spine, an AI mobile app for 3D assessment of Scoliosis with a smartphone video.

Special Webinar to meet the team of Momentum Health

Dr. Jean Ouellet, Philippe Miller and Evan Dimentberg

Be the first to learn about the latest tool which can monitor scoliosis curve progression. Momentum Health is an FDA Cleared mobile platform for remotely monitoring and screening for scoliosis using a smartphone video. The app uses a 45 second video taken on any phone at home or in clinic to create a photo-realistic 3D Model of the patient's body and using AI can predict the maximum Cobb Angle and assess other key metrics automatically.

It was started by Dr. Jean Ouellet and a masters student in Montreal where they validated it at St. Justine with Dr. Parent. They have been backed by the AO Foundation as their partner.

Theodoor Smit is professor of Translational Regenerative Medicine at Amsterdam University Medical Centers (Amsterdam UMC), Amsterdam, Netherlands.

He obtained a MSc in Mechanical Engineering at TU Delft, Netherlands, and a PhD in Biomechanical Engineering at Technical University Hamburg-Harburg, Germany, in 1996. His interdisciplinary research focuses on the role of mechanics in biology, more particular the mechanobiology of development and disease. The etiology of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, more precisely: the mechanical origin of scoliotic deformities, has been a major research theme throughout his career. The long-term clinical goal of his research is to develop implants to provide temporary mechanical support with degradable polymers, so that tissues can regenerate and heal in a proper way after trauma and disease. Smit received various prestigious research grants from government as well as industry. In 2011, he spent a sabbatical year at the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University in Boston. Smit published 178 papers in international peer reviewed journals and supervised 30 PhD students in medicine, engineering, biology and physics.

Scoliosis Awareness Month 2024, meet the teachers learn about Scoliosis Specific Physiotherapy based on the Schroth Method

SSOL Schroth is unique among schools that train and certify physical therapists utilizing the principles of the Schroth method.​

Its co-founders, Andrea Lebel and Hagit Berdishevsky, were personally mentored by Christa Lehnert-Schroth, who encouraged them to use her Schroth name to educate the world on the benefits of her profound method.

Our team of International teachers will be available for questions.

Online Fundamentals of Scoliosis Course, Certification Courses, Advanced training course details will be presented by the teachers team: Andrea Lebel, Hagit Berdishevsky, Meredith Weiss, Lise Stolze, Monica Bialho Alves de Souza, Sonia Martinez, Cindi Almonte
