Radiostereometric Analysis: patients participate in joint implant study

RSA is a unique x-ray research technique that is currently being studied at Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) for joint replacement patients. RSA enables HSS researchers to accomplish two goals at once – while carefully following the patient’s progress, they can also use information from this research to improve implant design and technology for future patients.
