What are the future directions of WBCT? In a recent round table discussion, orthopedic surgeons weighed in on the future of WBCT in clinical practice. "Research-wise, a lot is ongoing in terms of validating automatic ways to measure angles and axes, joint spaces and quality of the bone" 👨🏻⚕️Alessio Bernasconi, MD, PhD, FEBOT "The combination of physiological standing WBCT imaging for foot & ankle and all lower extremity pathologies will be paramount for decision making of treatment algorithms, particularly when WBCT imaging is combined with artificial intelligence and big data analysis." 👨🏻⚕️Cesar de Cesar Netto, MD, PhD "The WBCT scan will completely replace standard radiographs. We can now obtain digitally reconstructed x-rays from the WBCT scan itself which is probably more accurate." 👨🏻⚕️Scott Ellis, MD "It's just a phase: a technological transition. WBCT will take over from older modalities because immediate 3D weight bearing imaging is by nature superior to a 2 phase 2D weight bearing + 3D non-weight bearing imaging sequence." 👨🏻⚕️François Lintz, MD, PhD, FEBOT, MSc, CSCT "Having validated automatic measurements." 👨🏻⚕️Med. Martinus Richter, PhD Moderator:; Reddy S; Panelists:; Bernasconi A, Netto CC, Ellis S, Lintz F, Richter MM. Use of Weightbearing CT Imaging in Clinical Practice.

How frequently do you use WBCT in practice? In a recent round table discussion, orthopedic surgeons weighed in on when they turn to WBCT imaging when seeing patients in clinical practice. "Whenever bilateral standing radiographs would have been needed, a WBCT was performed instead. This was the case for diagnostic purposes but also for follow-up imaging at 3, 6 and 12 months after re-alignment procedures, fusions or arthroplasties." 👨🏻⚕️Alessio Bernasconi, MD, PhD, FEBOT "The reality is that if insurance was not an issue, I would not perform conventional radiographic imaging anymore. WBCT imaging allows superior and more complete 3-dimensional assessment of the foot and ankle, with low radiation dose." 👨🏻⚕️Cesar de Cesar Netto, MD, PhD "I use WBCT every day. I order a weightbearing CT scan before all my flatfoot reconstructions, fusions and hallux valgus procedures." 👨🏻⚕️Scott Ellis, MD "That's easy: I use it for every single patient. Every surgical patient will have it pre-operatively and at least once post-operatively. All other patients screened will have it as a primary modality." 👨🏻⚕️François Lintz, MD, PhD, FEBOT, MSc, CSCT "More than 21,000 scans since 2013" 👨🏻⚕️Med.

We're heading to Hamburg, Germany for the DKG conference from November 8-9. Stop by our booth to hear about the newest advances in weight bearing CT for knee imaging. Don't miss this opportunity to connect with us and explore the future of orthopedics! #CurveBeamAI #DKG2024 #KneeResearch

Providing patients with safe medical imaging examinations and radiation therapy treatments is the primary goal for the nation’s radiologic technologists. To recognize the vital work of RTs, CurveBeam AI is celebrating National Radiologic Technology Week®️ (NRTW). This year, we shine a spotlight on Frank Maglio, Radiologic technologist at Hospital for Special Surgery, in New York City. He has helped make weight bearing CT imaging services a success at this world-renowned institution.
