If that's a low-risk case, I'm a little puzzled about what a medium-risk case would look like.
The scoliscore seems to predict a scoliosis "FAIL" irrespective of what the curve has done. It seems similar to my daughters' cases of pectus excavatum which were more than mild and less than severe. They resolved completely on their own and the chest walls are normal. I think of this as a pectus excavatum "FAIL." The development and disappearance of the PE seemed clearly under genetic (and likely not epigenetic) control because it happened simultaneously in both kids at the same stage of growth. N.B. My entire family was simultaneously NOT praying for the PE to resolve so I suppose I can't prove it wasn't due to no prayer whatsoever so there's that.
I'm also not sure why she was put in the brace *after* the growth spurt. Aren't kids at 25 degrees-but-still-growing mostly already in brace?
