D'Osualdo Inclinometer

The D'Osualdo Inclinometer is an instrument for measuring the Cobb and gibbus angles. The inclinometer is made of an almost-rectangular plexiglas element with a goniometric scale; a small rod (free to rotate) with a bubble is positioned at the centre of the scale. The free end of the rod has the reading index for the goniometric scale. The longest side of the rectangle has a recess in order to make its application on the patient easier (in the event that the spinous processes of the vertebrae are protruding). The inclinometer is a manual instrument, normally used in two clinical situations:
1. when measuring the rotation angle of the torso during the forward-directed flexion test;
2. when measuring the Cobb angle on X-rays (both in AP and LL projection), therefore both for scoliosis as well as kyphosis/lordosis.

D'Osulado Arcometer

A validated instrument for non-invasive measurement of KYPHOSIS and LORDOSIS
The arcometer is a manual device made up of a ruled bar bearing three perpendicular arms: the first one is fixed at one end, the intermediate one is mobile on two axes and the third one mobile on one axis only.
The ends of the three arms identify three points through which a single circumference can be drawn. Using the arcometer we can measure the chord and the rise. These two values allow us to calculate the radius of the curve and Cobb angle by using a two entry table. The instrument comes with a table to calculate the Cobb angle (current use to integrate the clinical examination).

Delta Leg

The Delta Leg is a non-invasive manual instrument for evaluating the heterometry of lower limbs without any load bearing.
It consists of a bar with two orthogonal footboards: one is stationary, while the second moves along the longitudinal axis of the bar and is equipped with a pointer indicating the positive or negative numeric value of the heterometry on a millimetric scale on the upper surface of the bar. The “zero” value is set with reference to the stationary footboard. The precise structure of the instrument, the mobile footboard’s accurate sliding system and the millimetric scale allow fast and reliable measurement of the differences in length of the lower limbs with a margin of error of just a few millimetres.
