Abstract

BACKGROUND: The radiographic assessment of bone morphology impacts implant selection and fixation type in total hip arthroplasty (THA) and is important to minimize the risk of periprosthetic femur fracture (PFF). We utilized a deep-learning algorithm to automate femoral radiographic parameters and determined which automated parameters were associated with early PFF.
