Measuring anteversion and femoral neck‐shaft angle in cerebral palsy [PDF]
Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 1997 Femoral anteversion was measured by computed tomography (CT) in 40 children with cerebral palsy, however an accurate measurement was possible in only 59 of the 80 hips. Flat‐surface measurement of anteversion was possible in 72 of 80 hips by CT, and in 36 of 40 hips by ultrasound.
