Spine Phenotype Chart
The science of shape.
The art of fit.
For patients and caregivers.
Every body has a pattern. We design from yours.
Your body isn’t a size — it’s a shape, a frame, and a way of standing in the world.
mign’s patented Spine Phenotype Chart™ translates those real-world differences into digital design. Using four key dimensions — Shape, Frame, Posture, and Torso Height — we capture how your body actually moves and build a brace that supports it naturally.
Instead of forcing you into a standard “size,” your unique combination becomes your blueprint. That’s how mign braces feel different from the first wear — lighter, balanced, and built for motion.
Before we build it, let’s get to know you.
Take our quick quiz to reveal your unique phenotype code and mign service level. No tape measure required.

For Clinicians & Healthcare Partners
Clinical Precision.
Documented Confidence. Reimbursable Design.
The patented mign Spine Phenotype Chart transforms patient morphology into standardized, defensible documentation.
Quantifying four variables, shape, frame, posture, and torso height, provides an objective foundation for spinal orthosis selection, design, and justification.
Integrated into your digital workflow, the phenotype classification aligns directly with CMS definitions and qualifying criteria for brace selection, streamlining clinical documentation and coding.
Each patient’s charted phenotype informs:
Design parameters matched to ICON, BOSS, or STAR brace tiers
Embedded macro templates for L-code justification and physician documentation
Digital traceability from intake to order to claim submission
Consistent audit-ready language supporting compliance and payer confidence
This system reduces administrative burden, eliminates guesswork, and ensures every patient receives an orthosis designed and documented for their specific needs.
