Summary

This study tests a new CT scan technique to see if it can accurately detect loose hip implants before revision surgery. 600 patients scheduled for hip replacement revision will get the special CT scan, and the results will be compared to what the surgeon finds during the actual operation. The goal is to improve diagnosis and avoid unnecessary surgeries.
