- To compare the sagittal spinopelvic parameters in asymptomatic v/s diseased population
(degenerative spine disease) with respect to the following parameters: TK, LL,SLA, LSA, C7SVA, PI, SS, PT

Brief Summary  
Aim
Assessment of spinopelvic parameters in the normal Indian population and comparison with
patients of chronic low backache : An observational study
Objectives
Primary Objectives
- To compare the sagittal spinopelvic parameters in asymptomatic v/s diseased population
(degenerative spine disease) with respect to the following parameters: TK, LL,SLA, LSA,
C7SVA, PI, SS, PT
Secondary Objectives
- To assess normal radiolographical parameters in Indian population and compare with
patients with chronic low backache.
- To assess variability among asymptomatic controls with respect to age, sex, BMI, type of
work (hard labor v/s sedentary).
- To look for markers predicting the onset or prognosticating the course of degenerative
spine disease.
