Correlation of Measurements of the Prearthritic Hip Between Plain Radiography and Computed Tomography

ConclusionEquivalent angle measurement readings on CT and radiographs were consistent among physicians. CT measurements correlated well with radiographic measurements. This suggests that if a standardized procedure is used to find the center of the femoral head, a positive correlation among LCE, alpha, beta, and Tonnis angles measured on CT can be obtained between multiple readers.Level of EvidenceIII
