Fluoroscopic Intraoperative Images Produce Higher Image Quality and Decrease Total Radiation Exposure Compared to Radiographic X-ray Images in Patients After Primary Total Knee Arthroplasty

Conclusion: We observed significantly better image quality in fluoroscopic images than in radiographic X-ray images. The observed radiation exposure is lower than those expected for radiographic X-ray images. We conclude that fluoroscopic images can produce higher image quality and decreased radiation exposure.
