Abstract Background Previous studies reported good outcomes of acetabular cup placement using portable navigation systems during THA. However, we are aware no prospective comparing inexpensive augmented reality (AR) technology with accelerometer-based in Questions/purposes (1) Is the accuracy AR-based system superior to that an system? (2) Do frequencies surgical complications differ between two groups? Methods We conducted a prospective, two-arm, parallel-group, randomized controlled trial...
Abstract Background We developed an augmented reality (AR)-based portable navigation system in which the surgeon can view pelvic plane and placement angle of acetabular cup on display a smartphone during THA. Questions/purposes (1) Is component more accurate using AR-based compared with conventional freehand technique? (2) intraoperative measurement when goniometer? Methods Forty-six patients were randomly assigned to undergo THA (AR group) or mechanical alignment guide (conventional group)....
Abstract Background This pilot study was performed to examine the accuracy of AR-KNEE system, an imageless navigation system using augmented reality (AR) technology for total knee arthroplasty. The enables surgeon view information from superimposed on surgical field a smartphone screen in real time. Methods Using one resected 10 tibial sawbones with viewing axis and aiming varus/valgus, posterior slope, internal/external rotation angles, resection level field. We computed tomography measured...
Background: An augmented reality (AR)-based navigation system allows visualization of the center femoral head and mechanical axis superimposed on surgical field during total knee arthroplasty (TKA) may help surgeons to improve accuracy distal resection. Methods: First, we resected 10 Sawbones specimens using AR-based performed computed tomography (CT) measure resection angle part femur. We calculated absolute values differences between angles measured CT images displayed smartphone screen...
Two balloon flights with identical X-ray detectors were carried out in the summer of 1966, one from De Bilt, Netherlands (geomagnetic latitude 53 °N), and other Taiyomura, Japan 25 °N). The detector consists a NaI(Tl) crystal, 12.5 mm thick 50 diameter, surrounded by an effective collimator-shield plastic scintillator guard counter. rotating disk incorporated enables separation "forward" X rays cosmic-ray-induced background. results are very good agreement each other. In view rather large...
Although periarticular injection plays an important role in multimodal pain management following total hip arthroplasty (THA), there is no consensus on the optimal composition of injection. In particular, it not clear whether addition a corticosteroid improves relief achieved nor associated with more complications than are observed without corticosteroid. The aim this study was to quantify safety and effectiveness cortocosteroid use during THA.We conducted prospective, two-arm,...
We have developed an innovative system, AI QM Docking Net (AQDnet), which utilizes the three-dimensional structure of protein-ligand complexes to predict binding affinity. This system is novel in two respects: first, it significantly expands training dataset by generating thousands diverse ligand configurations for each complex and subsequently determining energy configuration through quantum computation. Second, we devised a method that incorporates atom-centered symmetry function (ACSF),...
To illustrate a surgical technique for augmented reality (AR)-assisted unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) and report preliminary data.We developed an AR-based navigation system that enables the surgeon to see tibial mechanical axis superimposed on patient's leg in addition cutting angle. We measured resection angle 11 UKAs using postoperative radiographs calculated absolute difference between preoperative target The was determined each patient: mean values were 0.7° ± 1.0° varus...
Despite its clinical benefits, intraoperative navigation is currently used only in approximately 20% of total hip arthroplasties (THA) partly due to the high cost systems and time-consuming preoperative preparation. By providing a simpler less expensive alternative, use likely increase among surgeons. In this study, we sought validate accuracy utility Fluoro HIP, newly developed cup angle measurement software that runs on iOS devices. Twenty-seven patients who underwent primary arthroplasty...
