SagittalMeter is an educative app to easily measure sagittal balance parameters, by directly placing your phone on the sagittal X-Rays. The sagittal balance is an imperative factor to take into consideration for all practitioners treating spine problems and particularly for surgeons during the pre-operative phase. The compensatory mechanisms of a sagittal unbalanced spine may prevent a successful surgery outcome. A fundamental understanding of a correct sagittal alignment is strongly recommended in determining the correct use of fusion or non fusion devices. SagittalMeter enables you to measure 3 fundamental angles which are essential to analyze sagittal alignment: • Pelvic incidence (PI) • Pelvic tilt (PT) • Sacral slope (SS)
