“Simple mechanical devices did not improve pelvis positioning in AP pelvis radiographs for reliable assessment of the acetabular orientation”

Abstract Background The aim of this study was to develop two simple positioning devices for anteroposterior pelvis radiographs and to evaluate their effect on accuracy of the radiographs for assessment of the acetabular orientation compared with non-instrumented positioning. Methods The superior ant...
