Use of WBCT in Preoperative Planning of Joint Preservation Surgery for Ankle Arthritis
In a recent AOFAS WBCTS video, Young Yi, MD, PhD, orthopedic surgeon, Inje University Sanggye Paik Hospital in Seoul, South Korea highlights the critical role of weight bearing CT (WBCT) in diagnosing and planning treatment for ankle osteoarthritis. Unlike traditional…
Not Just for Complex Cases: The Everyday Impact of Weight Bearing CT
Scott Shawen, MD, a foot and ankle surgeon from OrthoCarolina, Charlotte, North Carolina shared how weight bearing CT has transformed his day-to-day clinical decision-making In a candid session at hosted by the Weight Bearing CT Society at the 2024 AOFAS…
Practical Benefits of Using a Cone Beam Instead of X-Rays for Pre-op and Post-op Imaging
Dr. Marie-Aude Munoz, Orthopedic Surgeon, Montpellier, France, shares her personal journey of integrating weight bearing CT (WBCT) system into her foot and ankle surgical practice. She explains how the system transformed her approach to diagnostics, allowing for real-time, weight bearing,…
Supine CT May Underestimate Contact Stress in Critical WB Regions of the Acetabulum Compared to Weight Bearing CT
Key Points: Computational models of the hip often omit patient-specific functional orientation when placing imaging-derived bony geometry into anatomic landmark-based coordinate systems for application of joint loading schemes. Significant differences are found when incorporating WBCT-derived data suggesting non-weight bearing (NWB)…
Researchers Aim to Define Standard Values for Measuring Syndesmosis Injury on WBCT
Key Points: Weight Bearing CT (WBCT) allows for bilateral comparative data that is imperative when diagnosing ankle syndesmosis. Side-to-side volume differences of 19% or greater may be indicative of an abnormality. Gender norms are important to consider when evaluating ankle…
Fewer Missed Diagnoses: The Power of Point-of-Care Weight Bearing CT Imaging
Weight bearing CT is more than just a modality for functional imaging — "it’s a complete workflow revolution," for point-of-care access and diagnosis, said Dr. François Lintz, MD, PhD, FEBOT. Traditional imaging methods like X-ray can miss up to 40%…
Weight Bearing CT: A Game-Changer for Assessment of Knee Instability and ACL Injuries
Weight bearing CT offers a new way to evaluate knee instability and ACL injuries.- a fast, low-radiation, and highly detailed 3D imaging alternative to traditional methods. In a recent talk at AAOS 2025, Dr. Camillo Helito, MD, PhD, Prof highlighted…
