Results: Fifty two patients (46 women; mean age 16.6 years) were included. Conclusions: TAPS-Phy is a valid and reliable scale to rate a physician's impression of the severity of the deformity Keywords: Idiopathic scoliosis, Trunk deformity, Trunk appearance perception scale (TAPS), Reliability, Validity assessed the validity of a Cosmetic Spinal Score: an external evaluator quantified the severity of the trunk deformity The correlation coefficients between TAPS-Phy and MLC were statistically significant	./cache/work_eaqigdhfnzarldmhrpqrumueqq.pdf	./txt/work_eaqigdhfnzarldmhrpqrumueqq.txt
