  1. 1. Implant Movement Analysis in theroutine diagnosis of aseptic looseningafter hip arthroplasty, a two year followup

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för medicinska vetenskaper

    Author : Vendela Cappelen; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Introduction: A major long-term complication after hip arthroplasty is aseptic loosening.Conventional planar radiographs cannot always provide a certain diagnosis, which makesdecisions regarding revision surgery difficult. READ MORE

  2. 2. Evaluation of the role of ImplantMovement Analysis in diagnosing asepticloosening of total hip arthroplasty

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för medicinska vetenskaper

    Author : Ellen Harbom; [2019]
    Keywords : Hip prosthesis; Implant Movement Analysis; Aseptic loosening Computed Tomography; Radiography.;

    Abstract : Introduction: Aseptic loosening is the most common indication for revision surgery of hipimplants. However, sometimes diagnosis from planar radiography is uncertain, makingdecision regarding revision surgery problematic. Implant Movement Analysis (IMA) is anewly introduced method of analysing uncertain aseptic loosening of hip prostheses. READ MORE

  3. 3. Radiostereometry Using NURBS Implant Models

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Heba Shehabeldin; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Radiostereometric analysis (RSA) is a method used for determining migration and wear of orthopaedic implants through measurements performed in radiographs. There are two approaches of RSA: marker-based and model-based (MBRSA). Marker-based RSA is the conventional and most accurate method. READ MORE

  4. 4. Model test for fabrication and separation of wear particles in hip implants

    University essay from Tillämpad materialvetenskap

    Author : Charlotte Skjöldebrand; [2013]
    Keywords : hip implant; model test; wear particles; silicon nitride;

    Abstract : Total hip replacement is a common orthopedic surgery today with a population with an increasing life expectancy and a more active lifestyle. Most implants have a life expectancy of 10 years or longer, however after 25 years one out of four implants has been revised. This means that the risk of a secondary surgery is high for young patients. READ MORE

  5. 5. Optimizing and method development for clinical MR imaging near metallic implants

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Viktor Morin; [2012]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Metallic hip prosthesis is an implant that gets more common and comes with problems like metallosis (inflammation due to metallic debris). Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) which is a superior method when imaging soft tissue (compared to other medical imaging techniques) is affected by metal implants and will result in a distorted image.
