Timing matters: diurnal spine length variation in pediatric patients during radiotherapy

Abstract Background During the day-night cycle, gravity and applied stress to the body mass and spine causes a decrease in body height, which is restored overnight. This diurnal spine length variation has not yet been quantified during radiotherapy. Therefore, we aimed to quantify diurnal spine leng...
