Objectives This study analyzed the correlation between body parameters measured using X-ray and Chuna posture analysis system to determine their clinical value in diagnosing and evaluating skeletomuscular diseases. Methods X-ray and Chuna posture analysis system were performed for 105 patients to measure physical characteristics such as Interacromial angle, Pelvic obliquity angle, Structural leg length discrepancy (SLLD), Midpatella-midtalus angle (MMA) and Q-angle, Anterior head translation (AHT), Anterior superior iliac spine to posterior superior iliac spine angle (ASIS-PSIS angle), Interscapular angle, Scoliotic angle and Cobb's angle. Statistical analysis using statistical analysis techniques and Pearson correlation coefficients was performed to assess the body parameters obtained by X-ray and Chuna posture analysis system. Results Significant correlations were observed between the values for Interacromial angle, Pelvic obliquity angle, SLLD, MMA and Q-angle, AHT, ASIS-PSIS angle, Interscapular angle, Scoliotic angle and Cobb's angle obtained by X-ray and Chuna posture analysis system. Significant correlations were also observed between right MMA and left Q-angle as well as between left MMA and right Q-angle. Conclusions Chuna posture analysis system can be used instead of X-ray measure body parameters and perform posture analysis in clinical practice. This study's findings are expected to serve as a basis for further research on the clinical application of Chuna posture analysis system.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is body parameters characteristics through posture analysis system of musculoskeletal problem patient Methods : Posture analysis system were performed for 164 patients to measure body parameters such as Q-angle, body inclination, neck inclination, PCMT(posterior cervical muscle tension), Knee flexion and posture balance. Statistical analysis using statistical analysis techniques and Pearson correlation coefficients was performed to assess the body parameters obtained by posture analysis system. Results : More than half of people out of 164 reported low back pain, 34.8% of the total was found to have neck pain. There was not a significant difference between genders from the characteristics of gender based body parameters expect for the statistical difference in Q angle, PCMT. There was a significant correlation between low back pain and multiple response status. There was a significant correlations between knee pain and Q angle. Also There was a significant correlations between pelvic pain and posture balance of ankle. Conclusions : Posture analysis system can be used to perform the analysis in place of X-ray measuring body posture and clinical parameters. The results of this study are expected to be the basis for further research on the clinical application of posture analysis system.
