- Highly reproducible detection of implant migration in orthopedic surgery
- Summary / Zusammenfassung
- Migration is an early sign of implant loosening. It can not reliable be detected based on standard radiographs because there are differences in patient positioning and radiographic techniques. Analysis-by-synthesis overcomes this problem. After extensive lab tests the system is currently applied to a series of patients.
