Key Points: Weight Bearing CT (WBCT) has helped surgeons better understand the orientation and specifications of patients’ joints, and it allows for the development of individualized cutting guides that are both reliable and reproducible. Using preoperative WBCT for intraoperative procedures…
Key Points: This study compared clinical indications, demographic data, radiation dose and cost of weight bearing CT (WBCT) imaging with traditional supine CT imaging (MDCT) for a cohort of pediatric patients. WBCT scans were performed in a private outpatient orthopedic…
Key Points: Weight Bearing CT imaging was used to observe elongation patterns of the superficial medial collateral ligament (sMCL) and posterior oblique ligament (POL). Previous studies have either been done in a non-weight bearing state or haven’t provided adequate radiographic…
Sports fans and sports medicine specialists alike are all watching sports star Rafael Nadal as he continues to collect victories at the Wimbledon Grand Slam as he plays with an injured foot. Despite his current performance, the question is whether…
Key Points 2D imaging has limitations for pathology such as Hallux Valgus (HV) as pronation on the sagittal and coronal planes cannot be fully appreciated. WBCT 3D measurements can reliably assess multiplanar deformities of the foot and ankle, which is…
With approximately 100,000 – 175,000 Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) reconstructions taking place annually in the United States, it’s essential to build out the tools to adequately evaluate patients with post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA), concomitant injuries, and reconstructive complications[1]. As surgical techniques…
Key Points: On weight bearing CT (WBCT) scans of healthy subjects, the AP axis was found to be positioned in 7.4 degrees of internal rotation relative to the traditional AP axis measured on supine CT scans. Researchers concluded WBCT clearly…
Key Points: WBCT studies showed each Kellgren-Lawrence grade of knee osteoarthritis has its own characteristic hindfoot alignment due to the effect of knee joint varus. WBCT studies showed As knee OA worsens, compensatory knee joint alignment depends on the ankle…
Current Standard of Care MRI is the current standard of care for non-invasive visualization of the cartilage and menisci. However, absence of weight bearing limits evaluation of these structures in a functional position. Value Proposition CBCT Arthrogram Weight Bearing CT…
