Multi-energy spectral photon-counting computed tomography (MARS) for detection of arthroplasty implant failure

Abstract To determine whether state-of-the-art multi-energy spectral photon-counting computed tomography (MARS) can detect knee arthroplasty implant failure not detected by standard pre-operative imaging techniques. A total knee arthroplasty (TKA) removed from a patient was reviewed. The extracted p...
