Figure 1. MJO,1972. „Abbott's“ (1) brace made of polyester
and glass wool. The properties of polyester obliged me to
manufacture it the way the orthopaedic Technicians do it.
The result was excellent and lasted until the last examination,
some 20 years later.
Figure 2a, b. Brace in 1999.This Chinese boy had some 30˚
curve of scoliosis. I received photos of him and his X-rays
recently. He has only 16˚, at the age of 16 years. He can be
considered as cured.
Figure 3, Matthiass, 1976, had chosen polyethylene as
a basic material. He presented such model in Bratislava with
my name, although his own role had been very great in
developing the system.
