Why is WBCT an essential modality in an MSK Imaging Suite?
The use of upright CT, also known as weight bearing CT (WBCT), is one of the biggest innovations in orthopedic imaging in the past decade, said Dr. Eric Bogner, MD Chief of the Division of CT at Hospital for Special…
WBCT Indications Series: PCFD
Progressive Collapsing Foot Deformity Progressive Collapsing Foot Deformity (PCFD), previously known as adult-acquired flatfoot deformity, is a multifactorial disorder characterized by concurrent multiplanar bony deformities. These deformities include, but are not limited to, hindfoot valgus, flattening of the medial longitudinal…
WBCT Indications Series: Midfoot Arthritis
Midfoot Arthritis Midfoot arthritis occurs when there is loss of cartilage at the tarsometatarsal and/or navicular-cuneiform joints. It has the potential to cause significant pain, disability, and decreased quality of life. The most common etiology is posttraumatic degeneration, but primary…
A Call for a Standardized Approach to Evaluating TAA Post-Op w/ WBCT
A paper published in Foot and Ankle International is calling for a weight bearing CT (WBCT) reference standard for post-operative evaluation of total ankle arthroplasties. With the rising popularity of softwares that can semi-automatically create 3D models from WBCT scans…
