Frequently asked questions
Can AI measure pelvic tilt accurately from clothing?
It can only estimate visible alignment. Loose clothing and an obscured waistline reduce usefulness, and the result is not a clinical angle measurement.
Does anterior pelvic tilt cause back pain?
A photo alone cannot establish a cause of pain. Back symptoms can have many contributors and deserve individual clinical evaluation when persistent or concerning.
