Computerised measurement of tibiofemoral alignment.
Tibiofemoral alignment has a direct correlation with the survival of total knee arthroplasty. Traditionally, it has been measured using a goniometer on radiographs. We describe new software which measures this alignment on scanned radiographs by automatically detecting bones in the image. Two surgeons used conventional methods and two clerical officers used the computerised routine to assess 58...
متن کاملA new biomechanical method for determination of static prosthetic alignment.
A new static alignment method for trans-tibial prostheses is suggested using the individual load line as a reference. Standing posture and static alignment of 18 experienced trans-tibial prosthetic users with good walking ability were determined and compared with 20 healthy persons. The individual load line was defined by means of the new Otto Bock alignment system "L.A.S.A.R. Posture". The sag...
متن کاملDirect measurement of human-cone-photoreceptor alignment.
We have developed an imaging reflectometer to measure cone-photoreceptor alignment. One makes measurements by bleaching the cone photopigment and imaging the distribution of light returning from the retina, which is illuminated from a small source imaged in the plane of the eye's pupil. If the source is near the optimal entry pupil position as determined psychophysically, the distribution of li...
متن کاملContinuous Wave Doppler Echocardiographic Measurement of Prosthetic Valve Gradients
Studies correlating prosthetic valve gradients determined by continuous wave Doppler echocardiography with gradients obtained by cardiac catheterization have, to date, been limited to patients with mitral and tricuspid prostheses or have compared nonsimultaneous measurements. Simultaneous Doppler and catheter pressure gradients in 36 patients (mean age, 63+13 years) with 42 prosthetic valves (2...
متن کاملMechanical Equipment for Magnet Measurement and Alignment
-” -The mechanical equipment for measuring and aligning (or fiducializing) magnets is described by reference to devices designed and built by a number of laboratories. Some of these are now available commercially. The descriptions are supplemented by a list of representative sources of hardware.
