CT-based surgical planning software improves the accuracy of total hip replacement preoperative planning

A Survey on Statistical Modeling and Machine Learning Approaches to Computer Assisted Medical Intervention: Intraoperative Anatomy Modeling and Optimization of Interventional Procedures

“…Now that the preoperative plan is accurately executed intraoperatively using the CAM system, the substantial part of THA surgery is now shifted to the CAD part, that is, how preoperative planning is performed. Although interactive systems have been developed for THA planning [100], it still depends on surgeon's expertise. Statistical shape modeling of the relations between the host bone shapes and implant is a promising approach for accurate and objective preoperative planning.…”

DICOM for Implantations—Overview and Application

“…The conversion to computerassisted template planning was favoured by three effects: firstly, printed X-ray images have been largely replaced by digital technologies [11], forcing surgeons to adapt to onscreen planning; secondly, digital implant templates allowed for a richer representation and higher accuracy of planning [12,13]; thirdly, in difficult cases or for generally very complex intervention types, three-dimensional planning was enabled through 3D templates and volumetric imaging.…”

Prediction of three-dimensional femoral offset from AP pelvis radiographs in primary hip osteoarthritis

“…As a consequence, several studies have promoted CT-based surgical planning 10,11 . Considering additional radiation exposure, higher costs, limited availability and a lack of evidence for improved clinical outcome in the long-term, this seems questionable.…”
