Development of a model-based Roentgen stereophotogrammetric analysis system to measure polyethylene wear in unicompartmental arthroplasty.

One of the most important causes of failure in unicompartmental knee replacement (UKR) is polyethylene wear. The aim of this study was to develop and assess a novel Roentgen stereophotogrammetric analysis (RSA)-based method for the measurement of linear wear suitable for UKR. Model-based RSA was use...
