Cadaveric Diagnostic Study of Subtle Syndesmotic Instability Using a 3-Dimensional Weight Bearing CT Distance Mapping Algorithm
Key Points: Imaging modalities such as plain radiographs (X-Ray), computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), don’t have the diagnostic accuracy needed to detect syndesmotic widening or subtle instability. Weight Bearing CT (WBCT) imaging when combined with a distance…
Understanding Foot & Ankle Alignment After Total Ankle Arthroplasty Using WBCT
At the International Weight Bearing CT Society (WBCT) session during the 2024 European Foot & Ankle Society congress in Brussels, Federico Usuelli, MD, a foot and ankle orthopedic surgeon at Humanitas San Pio X in Milan, Italy, discussed the adoption…
Transforming Bunion Assessment with Weight Bearing CT
By Dr. David Soomekh, DPM Foot and ankle specialist and surgeon, sports medicine & reconstructive foot and ankle surgery, Foot & Ankle Specialty Group, Beverly Hills, CA
Congruent Weber-B Ankle Fractures Do Not Alter Tibiotalar Contact Mechanics
Key Points: Weight Bearing CT (WBCT) provides critical data otherwise missed in weight bearing radiographs when trying to understand the true impact of a fracture on joint stability. Computational biomechanics, when paired with bilateral WBCT imaging, provides a better understanding…
