SPECT-CT for Assessment of Total Knee Arthroplasty in Navigated and Non-navigated Total Knee Arthroplasty
Overview
By the comparison of two operation methods navigated and non-navigated TKR with SPECT/CT we want to show wich method has the better outcome.
Full Title of Study: “SPECT-CT for Assessment of Patients Before and After Navigated and Conventional Total Knee Arthroplasty.”
Study Type
- Study Type: Observational
- Study Design
- Time Perspective: Prospective
- Study Primary Completion Date: July 2017
Detailed Description
With SPECT/CT we want to controll the clinical outcome of patients who underwent a navigated or a non-navigated TKR.
Interventions
- Procedure: TKR
- non-navigated versus computer-navigated total knee replacement
Arms, Groups and Cohorts
- SPECT/CT before/after navigated TKR
- SPECT/CT in patients before and after navigated TKR (assessment of bone tracer uptake, 3D CT component position)
- SPECT/CT before/after conventional TKR
- SPECT/CT in patients before and after conventional TKR (assessment of bone tracer uptake, 3D CT component position)
Clinical Trial Outcome Measures
Primary Measures
- which operation method is the best in terms of outcome and SPECT/CT imaging
