Using Area and Volume Measurements via WBCT to Detect Lisfranc Instability
Weight bearing CT (WBCT) can effectively differentiate between stable and unstable Lisfranc injuries, according to a recent study by Dr. Rohan Bhimani et al, Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. WBCT demonstrates high sensitivity and specificity,…
CurveBeam Announces Effort to Improve Insta-X Performance
AAOS attendees will get a first look at CurveBeam's improved digitally reconstructed radiographs, or Insta-X. Insta-X's are synthesized X-Ray views, digitally reconstructed from the original CT scan. Insta-Xs are automatically generated when a scan is opened in CubeVue, CurveBeam's…
WBCT Reveals Subtalar Joint Instability Mechanisms
Are two-dimensional imaging techniques to blame for the diagnostic enigma of subtalar joint instability? An emerging technology, three-dimensional weight bearing CT (WBCT), may be the solution to better understanding the concept of hindfoot instability. A recent study by Dr. Arne…
