  • Measuring femoral anteversion

    Dear biomch-l members

    I am looking for a reliable and accurate manual or
    computer-assisted technique for measuring femoral anteversion using data
    deriving from CT and/or conventional X-ray scans.

    I am particularly interested in methods which have been validated
    through comparison with intraoperative or post-mortem direct
    measurements. I would also like to know where to retrieve information on
    normal and pathological value ranges for this parameter. One more
    question: does anybody have the complete reference to the paper(s) in
    which Reikerås proposes his approach?

    Anyone's contribution will be greatly appreciated. I will as usual
    post a summary of replies.

    Thanks

    Francesco La Palombara
