Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT CT‐based radiostereometric analysis (CT‐RSA) is an alternative to RSA to measure implant migration. We performed a clinical validation study using VoluMetric Matching Micromotion Analysis (V3MA) software for CT‐RSA. The aims of this study were to assess the agreement between V3MA and Model‐based RSA software (for RSA), and to determine the ...
