BACKGROUND: The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) imposes payment penalties for readmissions following total joint replacement surgeries. This study focuses on total hip, knee, and shoulder arthroplasty procedures as they account for mo...
Prediction models are being increasingly used in the medical field to identify risk factors and possible outcomes. Some of these are presently being used to develop guidelines for improving clinical practice. The application of machine learning (ML),...
BACKGROUND: As the population ages, the rates of hip diseases and fragility fractures are increasing, making total hip arthroplasty (THA) one of the best methods for treating elderly patients. With the increasing number of THA surgeries and diverse s...
BACKGROUND: To compare image quality, metal artifacts, and diagnostic confidence of conventional computed tomography (CT) images of unilateral total hip arthroplasty patients (THA) with deep learning-based metal artifact reduction (DL-MAR) to convent...

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study is to compare peri-operative and short-term outcomes in patients who underwent elective total hip replacement (THA) for primary osteoarthritis (OA) with direct anterior approach (DAA) versus a pair-matched cohort...
OBJECTIVE: Successful total hip arthroplasty relies on accurate preoperative planning. However, the conventional preoperative planning, a two-dimensional method using X-ray template, has shown poor reliability of predicting component size. To our kno...
