The results of the AP radiography projection compared to the AP tomosynthesis scan in evaluation of demineralization and osteolysis around total hip arthroplasties. The cross-table lateral projections were not included in the comparison.
| Demineralization and osteolysis | Radiography inferior | Radiography and tomosynthesis equal | Radiography superior |
|---|---|---|---|
| Differentiation | 11 (28%) | 29 (72%) | 0 (0%) |
| Demarcation | 23 (58%) | 16 (40%) | 1 (2%) |
| Extent in the coronal plane | 33 (82%) | 6 (15%) | 1 (2%) |
