Pelvic x-ray measurements put to the test: can doctors see eye to eye?
NCT ID NCT04687306
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether different doctors can consistently measure certain angles on pelvic X-rays. Thirty-three healthy adults had X-rays taken while sitting and standing. Four doctors then measured the same images to see if they agreed. The goal is to find out if these measurements are reliable enough to help diagnose hip-spine problems in the future.
