Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (5)

  • Low Dose CT Images of Sufficient Pre-operative Planning Quality

    Low Dose CT Images will be compared to a standard dose to assess image quality.

    Day 1

  • Glenoid Version

    Representative CT images will be used to measure the version of each shoulder for preoperative purposes.

    Day 1

  • Glenoid Inclination

    Representative CT images will be used to measure the inclination of each shoulder for preoperative purposes.

    Day 1

  • Humeral Head Subluxation

    Representative CT images will be used to measure the humeral head subluxation of each shoulder for preoperative purposes.

    Day 1

  • Implant Selection

    Representative CT images will be used to determine the implant selection for preoperative purposes.

    Day 1

Study Arms (2)

Patients planning for total or reverse shoulder arthroplasty

Adult patients who are planning to undergo a total or reverse shoulder arthroplasty

Radiation: A low-dose CT scan of the shoulder

Retrospective group of patients who have already undergone preoperative planning

Retrospective cohort of patients who have undergone preoperative planning with a conventional shoulder CT for total or reverse shoulder arthroplasty.

Interventions

Briefly, a conventional CT scan will be conducted, with scan images representing a reconstruction of simultaneous scans at two sensors. L-CT images will be derived from single source data (ie the scan data gathered by one of the emitters rather than a reconstruction from both).

Will not share

Data is not planned to be shared outside of the collaborators of this project within the Duke University Medical Center. The data will only be reviewed by the study personnel listed on the Institutional Review Board (IRB), and not intended to be shared with an external institution or industry. However, when submitting data for manuscripts and publication purposes, all data will be deidentified of any public health information. All Protected Health Information (PHI) will be kept in a locked cabinet in the PI's office at Duke University and/or in a protected/encrypted folder in a file separate from the study information. Data will be analyzed by study team members using a computer that is password protected, and stored securely in encrypted Duke servers. Study files will be backed up onto Dr. Klifto's folder in a secure server provided to faculty in the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery. The subjects will not be identified in any reports or publications from this study.
