More Children Can Now Benefit From ScoliScore Testing for Early Onset Scoliosis
ScoliScore®, a groundbreaking DNA-based molecular test that helps predict the risk of spinal curve progression is now available to a wider age range of children. Previous indications stated that to be eligible for the test, a patient must be between the ages of nine and 13. New indications now state that there is no age limit to receive the ScoliScore as long as the physician deems the patient "skeletally immature." This new regulation allows children over the age of 13 who meet the inclusion criteria to benefit from this breakthrough testing.
