Abstract
35 patients with a smooth, threaded acetabular Mecron type prosthesis were examined with the aid of a table top with wiremarkers and a fixed 30-degree wedge to allow for reproducible positioning. Under fluoroscopic control, pelvic and spot films were made. The inter- and intraobserver variability of anteversion and inclination angle measurements of the prostheses had a standard deviation of less than 1 degree. The method can be applied to other acetabular prostheses as well.
