Material6.1 Non-RSA Methods of Obtaining Clinical Radiographsfor Measuring Femoral Head Penetration:6.1.1 These methods utilize an Anterior/Posterior (A/P) anda cross-table lateral projection of the pelvis. TheA/P projectionis used for m

33、easuring two dimensional penetration vector. Thecross-table lateral is used to determine the magnitude anddirection of the three dimensional penetration vector.6.1.2 These radiographs are typically taken in the supineposition. However, the A/P projections can be obtained fromthe standing position. T

34、he method must be consistent through-out the subsequent examinations.6.1.3 The A/P projection is to be pubic centered includingboth hips, typically taken using a 14 by 17 film or target size.As a general rule, having the top of the iliac crest and the lessertrochanter of the femur visible results in

35、 a proper radiographicprojection.6.1.3.1 Atypical radiographic set-up would have a source toplate distance of 40 in. and an exposure setting of 80 kv 25-30maS.6.1.4 The cross-table lateral is obtained in the supineposition.6.1.4.1 Atypical radiographic set-up would have a source toplate distance of

36、40 in. and an exposure setting of 80 kv 25-30maS.6.1.5 Some non-RSA methods have been validated for theuse of ninety degree standing oblique radiographs of the hip.6.1.5.1 Amethod of accurately and reproducibly positioningthe patient for forty five degree oblique projections is needed.One method, us

37、ing a positioning chariot, has been described.Other methods could be employed for this purpose.6.1.5.2 Atypical radiographic set-up would have a source toplate distance of 40 in. and an exposure setting of 85 kv 40-50maS.6.2 RSA Method of Obtaining Clinical Radiographs forMeasuring Femoral Head Pene

38、tration:6.2.1 These radiographs can be taken in the supine orstanding position. The method must be consistent throughoutthe subsequent examinations.6.2.2 The radiographic set-up for RSAanalysis requires twox-ray generators which are discharged nearly simultaneously.6.2.3 The preferred set-up would u

39、se two fixed generators.6.2.4 A more common set-up utilizes one fixed and oneportable generator.6.2.5 The generators are positioned having a 60 in. source toplate distance and angled at 40 degrees. The set-up recom-mended by the individual software manufacturers is to befollowed.6.2.6 Radiographic s

40、ettings for the RSA projections focuson obtaining high contrast between the tantalum markers andthe surrounding bone and metal. This is accomplished by usinghigh kilovolt settings. These films are not generally used forclinical evaluation.6.2.7 A typical radiographic set-up would have an exposureset

41、ting of 150 kv 8-12 maS can be used.6.2.8 Many portable x-ray units and some fixed units are notcapable of operating at 150 kv. In these situations, settings of125 kv and 12-16 maS can be used.6.3 Conversion of Radiographic Images to AppropriateDigital Format:6.3.1 Scanning of Plain Radiographic Fil

42、ms:6.3.1.1 Several flat bed scanners have been validated bydifferent software developers for use in converting a plainradiograph into a digital image. Recommendations of thesoftware developer should be followed.6.3.1.2 Roller scanners, which feed multiple pages into thescanner, shall not be used.6.3

43、.1.3 Non-RSA films are to be scanned at a resolution of150 dpi at a grayscale resolution of 8 bit and saved in a TIFFformat.6.3.1.4 RSA films scan resolution varies among softwaremanufacturers. Some require a 300 dpi/16 bit image whileothers require 150 dpi/8 bit image. All require a TIFF format.6.3

44、.2 Conversion of DICOM Formatted Radiographs:6.3.2.1 An appropriate DICOM reader is necessary for thisprocess.6.3.2.2 The resolution, gray scale, and file format should beas described above.6.3.2.3 The dpi of DICOM formatted films are limited bythe hardware used to acquire the image. The output from

45、 agiven center must be checked.6.3.2.4 Generally, computer radiographic units have a stan-dard resolution and a high resolution setting which must beselected at the time the images are acquired.6.4 Radiographic Exclusion Criterion:6.4.1 Non-RSA Computational Methods:6.4.1.1 These methods are sensiti

Projections which all fall within the top orbottom third of the film are also usable.6.4.1.3 Repeated examination of one film using the chosensoftware should result in similar values of reported distancebetween the center of the cup and the center of the head.Unstable results ind
