(1) Select a lower limit above which the presence of bulging will be reported (in millimeters)


(2) Select a lower limit above which a present bulging will be reported as asymmetric in a given direction (in millimeters)


(3) Select a probability percentage for the presence of bulging, above which it should be reported as present.*


* Based on various measurements, CoLumbo’s algorithm calculates the probability of a pathology being present. The user can change the probability percentage above which a herniation or bulging will be reported as present. For example, if the algorithm calculates a measurement above the norm and determines a 40% probability of a herniation, if the user has set a minimum of 50% – CoLumbo will not report the presence of a herniation, but only an abnormal measurement. The minimum is 1% and the maximum is 99%.
