Scoliosis is a three-dimensional spinal deformity, which may lead to abnormal morphologies, such as thoracic deformity, and pelvic tilt. Severe patients may suffer from nerve damage and urinary abnormalities. At present, the number of scoliosis patients in primary and secondary schools has exceeded five million in China, the incidence rate is about 3% to 5% which is growing every year. The research on scoliosis, therefore, has important clinical value. This paper systematically introduces computer-assisted scoliosis screening and diagnosis as well as analyzes the advantages and limitations of different algorithm models in the current issue field. Moreover, the paper also discusses the current development bottlenecks in this field and looks forward to future development trends.

The effectiveness of artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare is significantly hindered by unstructured clinical documentation, which results in noisy, inconsistent, and logically fragmented training data. To address this challenge, we present a knowledge-driven framework that integrates the standardized clinical terminology SNOMED CT with the Neo4j graph database to construct a structured medical knowledge graph. In this graph, clinical entities such as diseases, symptoms, and medications are represented as nodes, and semantic relationships such as ``caused by,'' ``treats,'' and ``belongs to'' are modeled as edges in Neo4j, with types mapped from formal SNOMED CT relationship concepts (e.g., \texttt{Causative agent}, \texttt{Indicated for}). This design enables multi-hop reasoning and ensures terminological consistency. By extracting and standardizing entity-relationship pairs from clinical texts, we generate structured, JSON-formatted datasets that embed explicit diagnostic pathways. These datasets are used to fine-tune large language models (LLMs), significantly improving the clinical logic consistency of their outputs. Experimental results demonstrate that our knowledge-guided approach enhances the validity and interpretability of AI-generated diagnostic reasoning, providing a scalable solution for building reliable AI-assisted clinical systems.
