Abstract
Total hip arthroplasty is an effective treatment for severe degenerative arthritis and is increasingly being used. Radiography is the primary modality for the initial diagnosis of osteoarthritis and preoperative planning. Additional radiographic views may include the spine and lower extremities in order to optimize implant positioning for the individual patient. Computed tomography is sometimes used for preoperative planning and intraoperative robotic assistance. Magnetic resonance imaging and diagnostic ultrasound is generally reserved for patients without obvious arthritis. Ultrasound-guided injections may provide diagnostic and/or therapeutic benefits.
期刊介绍:
Seminars in Ultrasound, CT and MRI is directed to all physicians involved in the performance and interpretation of ultrasound, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging procedures. It is a timely source for the publication of new concepts and research findings directly applicable to day-to-day clinical practice. The articles describe the performance of various procedures together with the authors'' approach to problems of interpretation.
