Analysis of radionuclide arthrograms, radiographic arthrograms, and sequential plain radiographs in the assessment of painful hip arthroplasty.
An analysis of sequential plain radiographs (XR), radionuclide arthrography, (RNA), and radiographic arthrography (RGA) was performed to determine the efficacy and usefulness of each study in the diagnosis of loosening of prosthetic hip components. Over a 2-year-period, 65 hip prostheses were assessed before operation using each type of study; these results were compared to the intraoperative assessment of the status of the components. Of the three studies, sequential plain radiographs were overall the most accurate, sensitive, and specific. Radionuclide arthrography was of no use on the acetabular side but quite useful on the femoral side, especially in cases with only minimal femoral component loosening. Radiographic arthrography was overall the least accurate or sensitive of the three studies performed.
