    Fig 1.

    Midline sagittal ASSIST (from left to right). A, A 7-year-old boy with ADHD demonstrating mild motion artifacts. B, A 9-year-old boy with Asperger syndrome. Diaphragmatic contour (arrow) is well defined, suggesting good breath-hold. C, A 10-year-old girl with developmental delay and short stature. Diaphragmatic contour (arrow) is well defined, suggesting good breath-hold. D, A 12-year-old girl with prominent scoliosis. Examination resulted in autolabeling failure. E, A 16-year-old adolescent boy with mild Scheuermann disease at T6-T8 (arrows) and L4 superior endplate deformity (arrow). F, A 17-year-old adolescent boy with lumbarized S1 (L6) vertebrae (closed arrow) and enlarged pituitary gland (open arrow). G, An 18-year-old woman with mild kyphoscoliosis.
