Radiographic knee procedures for clinical study in knee osteoarthritis
We perform all radiographic knee procedures for an ongoing clinical trial in knee osteoarthritis (link) for patients recruited in the Dayton and Cincinnati area. This involves a special radiographic procedure in which the knee is positioned under fluoroscopy before the radiograph is taken. This special positioning technique allows the accurate quantitative evaluation of the knee joint space which is directly related to the cartilage thickness in the knee joint.
