Are Portable Imaging Intraoperative Radiographs Helpful for Assessing Adequate Acetabular Cup Positioning in Total Hip Arthroplasty?
Despite advances in surgical techniques and instrumentation, current intra-operative estimations of acetabular version in total hip arthroplasty are of limited accuracy. In the present study, two experienced orthopedic surgeons compared intra-operatively measured (using portable imaging) anteversions and vertical inclinations of acetabular components with those measured using standardized radio...
متن کاملFracture Dislocation C6 to C7: Importance of Adequate Radiographs
A 30-year-old man presented to the emergency department after a motorcycle accident at high speed.

متن کاملReliability of growth prediction with hand-wrist radiographs.
The aim of this study was to investigate the validity of hand-wrist radiographic analysis in estimating the amount of remaining craniofacial growth. The material compromised cephalograms of 22 males and 27 females with a Class I malocclusion. The median age of the females at the beginning (T1) was 11 years 10 months and of the males 12 years 6 months and at the end (T2) of treatment 14 years 7 ...
متن کاملThe effect of patient positioning during radiographs on the resulting Cobb angle measurements
Background Standing spinal radiographs have been the primary method of spinal deformity evaluation in patients with scoliosis. During periods of patient surveillance, the clinician compares radiographs over a period of time to assess the progression of the deformity [1-3]. One of the potential problems in comparing one radiograph to another is difference in positioning [4-6]. The goal of this s...
متن کاملIncorrect Diagnosis by Positioning Errors in Panoramic Radiographs
The “strange phenomenon”, discovered by Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen in the nineteenth century, that sensitized barium platinocyanide plates at the time of their studies on cathode rays in the gas tube, were called Ray X. The discovery of these new rays with singular characteristics gave greater clinical and practical insight into dentistry. This new form of energy gave rise to imaging obtained from ...
