Abstract

Post-surgical evaluation of osteosynthesis material and adjacent tissue can be challenging in both radiography and cross-sectional imaging. This study investigates the performance of a multi-purpose X-ray scanner with cone-beam CT (CBCT) function and iterative metal artefact reduction capabilities in patients after osteoplasty of the appendicular skeleton.
