Newhouse AC, Alter TD, Handoklow LA, Espinoza Orías AA, Inoue N, Nho SJ. 3.0T magnetic resonance imaging-based hip bone models for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome are equivalent to computed tomography-based models. J Orthop Res 2024; 42:2017-2025. [PMID: 38564320 DOI: 10.1002/jor.25845] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2023] [Revised: 02/16/2024] [Accepted: 03/09/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024]
Abstract
This study aimed to compare three-dimensional (3D) proximal femoral and acetabular surface models generated from 3.0T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to the clinical gold standard of computed tomography (CT). Ten intact fresh-frozen cadaveric hips underwent CT and 3.0T MRI scans. The CT- and MRI-based segmented models were superimposed using a validated 3D-3D registration volume-merge method to compare them. The least surface-to-surface distance between the models was calculated by a point-to-surface calculation algorithm using a custom-written program. The variables of interest were the signed and absolute surface-to-surface distance between the paired bone models. One-sample t-tests were performed using a signed and absolute test value of 0.16 mm and 0.37 mm, respectively, based on a previous study that validated 1.5T MRI bone models by comparison with CT bone models. For the femur, the average signed and absolute surface-to-surface distance was 0.18 ± 0.09 mm and 0.30 ± 0.06 mm, respectively. There was no difference in the signed surface-to-surface distance and the 0.16 mm test value (t = 0.650, p = 0.532). However, the absolute surface-to-surface difference was less than the 0.37 mm test value (t = -4.025, p = 0.003). For the acetabulum, the average signed and absolute surface-to-surface distance was -0.06 ± 0.06 mm and 0.26 ± 0.04 mm, respectively. The signed (t = -12.569, p < 0.001) and absolute (t = -8.688, p < 0.001) surface-to-surface difference were less than the 0.16 mm and 0.37 mm test values, respectively. Our data shows that 3.0T MRI bone models are more similar to CT bone models than previously validated 1.5T MRI bone models. This is likely due to the higher resolution of the 3T data.

Arthroscopic Bankart repair with remplissage yields similar outcomes to open Latarjet for primary and revision stabilization in the setting of subcritical glenoid bone loss. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2024:S1058-2746(24)00449-X. [PMID: 38945290 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2024.05.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/05/2024] [Revised: 04/22/2024] [Accepted: 05/04/2024] [Indexed: 07/02/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Management of patients with recurrent anterior glenohumeral instability in the setting of subcritical glenoid bone loss (GBL), defined in this study as 20% GBL or less, remains controversial. This study aimed to compare arthroscopic Bankart with remplissage (ABR + R) to open Latarjet for subcritical GBL in primary or revision procedures. We hypothesized that ABR + R would yield higher rates of recurrent instability and reoperation compared to Latarjet in both primary and revision settings. METHODS A retrospective study was conducted on patients undergoing either arthroscopic ABR + R or an open Latarjet procedure. Patients with connective tissue disorders, critical GBL (>20%), <2 year follow-up, or insufficient data were excluded. Recurrent instability and revision were the primary outcomes of interest. Additional outcomes of interest included subjective shoulder value, strength, and range of motion (ROM) RESULTS: One hundred eight patients (70 ABR + R, 38 Latarjet) were included with an average follow-up of 4.3 ± 2.1 years. In the primary and revision settings, similar rates of recurrent instability (Primary: P = .60; Revision: P = .28) and reoperation (Primary: P = .06; Revision: P = 1.00) were observed between Latarjet and ABR + R. Primary ABR + R exhibited better subjective shoulder value, active ROM, and internal rotation strength compared to primary open Latarjet. However, no differences were observed in the revision setting. CONCLUSION Similar rates of recurrent instability and reoperation in addition to comparable outcomes with no differences in ROM were found for ABR + R and Latarjet in patients with subcritical GBL in both the primary and revision settings. ABR + R can be a safe and effective procedure in appropriately selected patients with less than 20% GBL for both primary and revision stabilization.

Three-Dimensional Magnetic Resonance Imaging Fast Field Echo Resembling a Computed Tomography Using Restricted Echo-Spacing Sequence Is Equivalent to 3-Dimensional Computed Tomography in Quantifying Bone Loss and Measuring Shoulder Morphology in Patients With Shoulder Dislocation. Arthroscopy 2024; 40:1777-1788. [PMID: 38154531 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2023.12.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2023] [Revised: 12/11/2023] [Accepted: 12/13/2023] [Indexed: 12/30/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the equivalence of 3-dimensional (3D) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (FRACTURE [Fast field echo Resembling A CT Using Restricted Echo-spacing]) and 3D computed tomography (CT) in quantifying bone loss in patients with shoulder dislocation and measuring morphologic parameters of the shoulder. METHODS From July 2022 to June 2023, patients with anterior shoulder dislocation who were aged 18 years or older and underwent both MRI and CT within 1 week were included in the study. The MRI protocol included an additional FRACTURE sequence. Three-dimensional reconstructions of MRI (FRACTURE) and CT were completed by 2 independent observers using Mimics software (version 21.0) through simple threshold-based segmentation. For bone defect cases, 2 independent observers evaluated glenoid defect, percentage of glenoid defect, glenoid track, Hill-Sachs interval, and on-track/off-track. For all cases, glenoid width, glenoid height, humeral head-fitting sphere radius, critical shoulder angle, glenoid version, vault depth, and post-processing time were assessed. The paired t test was used to assess the differences between 3D CT and 3D MRI (FRACTURE). Bland-Altman plots were constructed to evaluate the consistency between 3D CT and 3D MRI (FRACTURE). Interobserver and intraobserver agreement was evaluated with the interclass correlation coefficient. The paired χ2 test and Cohen κ statistic were used for binary variables (on-track/off-track). RESULTS A total of 56 patients (16 with bipolar bone defect, 5 with only Hill-Sachs lesion, and 35 without bone defect) were ultimately enrolled in the study. The measurements of 21 bone defect cases showed no statistically significant differences between 3D CT and 3D MRI: glenoid defect, 4.05 ± 1.44 mm with 3D CT versus 4.16 ± 1.39 mm with 3D MRI (P = .208); percentage of glenoid defect, 16.21% ± 5.95% versus 16.61% ± 5.66% (P = .199); glenoid track, 18.02 ± 2.97 mm versus 18.08 ± 2.98 mm (P = .659); and Hill-Sachs interval, 14.29 ± 1.93 mm versus 14.35 ± 2.07 mm (P = .668). No significant difference was found between 3D CT and 3D MRI in the diagnosis of on-track/off-track (P > .999), and diagnostic agreement was perfect (κ = 1.00, P < .001). There were no statistically significant differences between the 2 examination methods in the measurements of all 56 cases, except that the post-processing time of 3D MRI was significantly longer than that of 3D CT: glenoid height, 34.56 ± 1.98 mm with 3D CT versus 34.67 ± 2.01 mm with 3D MRI (P = .139); glenoid width, 25.32 ± 1.48 mm versus 25.45 ± 1.47 mm (P = .113); humeral head-fitting sphere radius, 22.91 ± 1.70 mm versus 23.00 ± 1.76 mm (P = .211); critical shoulder angle, 33.49° ± 2.55° versus 33.57° ± 2.51° (P = .328); glenoid version, -3.25° ± 2.57° versus -3.18° ± 2.57° (P = .322); vault depth, 37.43 ± 1.68 mm versus 37.58 ± 1.75 mm (P = .164); and post-processing time, 89.66 ± 10.20 seconds versus 360.93 ± 26.76 seconds (P < .001). For all assessments, the Bland-Altman plots showed excellent consistency between the 2 examination methods, and the interclass correlation coefficients revealed excellent interobserver and intraobserver agreement. CONCLUSIONS Three-dimensional MRI (FRACTURE) is equivalent to 3D CT in quantifying bone loss in patients with shoulder dislocation and measuring shoulder morphologic parameters. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level II, development of diagnostic criteria (consecutive patients with consistently applied reference standard and blinding).

Objective calculation of glenoid bone loss in anterior shoulder instability based on the contour of the posteroinferior quadrant using the best-fit circle method: an accurate and reproducible evaluation. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2024:S1058-2746(24)00381-1. [PMID: 38810912 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2024.03.064] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2023] [Revised: 03/27/2024] [Accepted: 03/29/2024] [Indexed: 05/31/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Glenoid bone loss is proposed to be an important risk factor for recurrent anterior shoulder instability. The purpose of the present study was to develop an accurate and reproducible method for quantifying a bone loss in patients with anterior shoulder instability. METHODS A total of 66 sets of computed tomography images of the glenoid were acquired and en face view was established. Based on the contour of the inferior half and posteroinferior quadrant of the glenoid, the best-fit circle was drawn using the least-squares method with a comparison of the radii. A bone loss was created via a simulated osteotomy, and a method for estimating the bone loss based on the contour of the posteroinferior quadrant was developed. RESULTS The radii of the best-fit circle were 29.30 ± 1.84 mm and 33.76 ± 2.04 mm, based on the inferior half and posteroinferior quadrant of the glenoid, respectively (P < .01). Bone loss quantification using the contour of the inferior half or posteroinferior quadrant with simulated osteotomy showed a significant difference (P < .01). For a 25% of glenoid bone loss, the estimated value using the traditional method on the contour of the posteroinferior quadrant was 34%. A new method for accurate bone loss quantification was developed based on the contour of the posteroinferior quadrant of the glenoid. CONCLUSION Estimation of the glenoid bone loss based on the rim of the posteroinferior quadrant may overestimate the glenoid bone loss due to the difference in the radius of the curvature of the inferior half and posteroinferior quadrant. A mathematical method developed to correct this error and may aid in more accurately, measuring the glenoid bone loss using the contour of the posteroinferior quadrant in patients with anterior shoulder instability.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the accuracy of 3-dimensional (3D) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with that of 3D computed tomography (CT) in evaluating glenoid bone loss (GBL). METHODS This review aligned with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses guidelines. PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Embase, and Web of Science were obtained from data inception to August 28, 2023. The search term "glenoid bone loss" was extracted and analyzed via stringent inclusion and exclusion criteria. The Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies (QUADAS)-2 combined with the QUADAS-Comparative to assess the heterogeneity of included studies. RESULTS A total of 1,589 related studies were retrieved, and 10 studies were finally included, of which a total of 143 shoulders were evaluated. The index test in QUADAS-Comparative was low risk in 9 studies. 3D MRI measurements of GBL were primarily best-fit circles (n = 9). In both clinical and cadaveric studies, the mean percentages of GBL measured by 3D MRI were 0.38% to 2.19% and 0.25% to 6.1% when compared with 3D CT and standard reference values, respectively. Intraclass correlation coefficient agreement greater than 0.9 between GBL percentages measured by 3D CT and 3D MRI. 3D MRI also could accurately measure glenoid width, glenoid height, humeral head width, and height. 3D MRI reconstruction time was similar to that of 3D CT, which was mainly 10 to 15 minutes. CONCLUSIONS In both clinical and cadaveric studies, compared with 3D CT, 3D MRI is accurate and consistent in assessing glenohumeral bone, especially in measuring GBL, and the reconstruction time of 3D MRI is similar to 3D CT. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level Ⅲ, systematic review of Level Ⅱ-Ⅲ studies.

Abstract
Background This study aims to determine the effect of time and imaging modality (three-dimensional (3D) CT vs. 3D magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)) on the surgical procedure indicated for shoulder instability. The hypothesis is there will be no clinical difference in procedure selection between time and imaging modality. Methods Eleven shoulder surgeons were surveyed with the same ten shoulder instability clinical scenarios at three time points. All time points included history of present illness, musculoskeletal exam, radiographs, and standard two-dimensional MRI. To assess the effect of imaging modality, survey 1 included 3D MRI while survey 2 included a two-dimensional and 3D CT scan. To assess the effect of time, a retest was performed with survey 3 which was identical to survey 2. The outcome measured was whether surgeons made a "major" or "minor" surgical change between surveys. Results The average major change rate was 14.1% (standard deviation: 7.6%). The average minor change rate was 12.6% (standard deviation: 7.5%). Between survey 1 to the survey 2, the major change rate was 15.2%, compared to 13.1% when going from the second to the third survey (P = .68). The minior change rate between the first and second surveys was 12.1% and between the second to third interview was 13.1% (P = .8). Discussion The findings suggest that the major factor related to procedural changes was time between reviewing patient information. Furthermore, this study demonstrates that there remains significant intrasurgeon variability in selecting surgical procedures for shoulder instability. Lastly, the findings in this study suggest that 3D MRI is clinically equivalent to 3D CT in guiding shoulder instability surgical management. Conclusion This study demonstrates that there is significant variability in surgical procedure selection driven by time alone in shoulder instability. Surgical decision making with 3D MRI was similar to 3D CT scans and may be used by surgeons for preoperative planning.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The best-fitting circle drawn by computed tomography (CT) reconstruction of the en face view of the glenoid bone to measure the bone defect is widely used in clinical application. However, there are still some limitations in practical application, which can prevent the achievement of accurate measurements. This study aimed to accurately and automatically segment the glenoid from CT scans based on a 2-stage deep learning model and to quantitatively measure the glenoid bone defect. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients who were referred to our institution between June 2018 and February 2022 were retrospectively reviewed. The dislocation group consisted of 237 patients with a history of ≥2 unilateral shoulder dislocations within 2 years. The control group consisted of 248 individuals with no history of shoulder dislocation, shoulder developmental deformity, or other disease that may lead to abnormal morphology of the glenoid. All patients underwent CT examination with a 1-mm slice thickness and a 1-mm increment, including complete imaging of the bilateral glenoid. A residual neural network (ResNet) location model and a U-Net bone segmentation model were constructed to develop an automated segmentation model for the glenoid from CT scans. The data set was randomly divided into training (201 of 248) and test (47 of 248) data sets of control-group data and training (190 of 237) and test (47 of 237) data sets of dislocation-group data. The accuracy of the stage 1 (glenoid location) model, the mean intersection-over-union value of the stage 2 (glenoid segmentation) model, and the glenoid volume error were used to assess the performance of the model. The R2 value and Lin concordance correlation coefficient were used to assess the correlation between the prediction and the gold standard. RESULTS A total of 73,805 images were obtained after the labeling process, and each image was composed of CT images of the glenoid and its corresponding mask. The average overall accuracy of stage 1 was 99.28%; the average mean intersection-over-union value of stage 2 was 0.96. The average glenoid volume error between the predicted and true values was 9.33%. The R2 values of the predicted and true values of glenoid volume and glenoid bone loss (GBL) were 0.87 and 0.91, respectively. The Lin concordance correlation coefficient value of the predicted and true values of glenoid volume and GBL were 0.93 and 0.95, respectively. CONCLUSION The 2-stage model in this study showed a good performance in glenoid bone segmentation from CT scans and could quantitatively measure GBL, providing a data reference for subsequent clinical treatment.

Abstract
Background The purpose of this study was to develop a deep learning approach to automatically segment the scapular bone on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images and to compare the accuracy of these three-dimensional (3D) models with that of 3D computed tomography (CT). Methods Fifty-five patients with high-resolution 3D fat-saturated T2 MRI were retrospectively identified. The underlying pathology included rotator cuff tendinopathy and tears, shoulder instability, and impingement. Two experienced musculoskeletal researchers manually segmented the scapular bone. Five cross-validation training and validation splits were generated to independently train two-dimensional (2D) and 3D models using a convolutional neural network approach. Model performance was evaluated using the Dice similarity coefficient (DSC). All models with DSC > 0.70 were ensembled and used for the test set, which consisted of four patients with matching high-resolution MRI and CT scans. Clinically relevant glenoid measurements, including glenoid height, width, and retroversion, were calculated for two of the patients. Paired t-tests and Wilcoxon signed-rank tests were used to compare the DSC of the models. Results The 2D and 3D models achieved a best DSC of 0.86 and 0.82, respectively, with no significant difference observed. Augmentation of imaging data significantly improved 3D but not 2D model performance. In comparing clinical measurements of 3D MRI and CT, there was a mean difference ranging from 1.29 mm to 3.46 mm and 0.05° to 7.47°. Conclusion We have presented a fully automatic, deep learning-based strategy for extracting scapular shape from a high-resolution MRI scan. Further developments of this technology have the potential to allow for surgeons to obtain all clinically relevant information from MRI scans and reduce the need for multiple imaging studies for patients with shoulder pathology.

Abstract
Background The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of high body mass index on the 1-year minimal outcome following arthroscopic shoulder stabilization. Methods Patients who underwent arthroscopic Bankart repair (ABR) between 2017 and 2021 were identified and assigned to 1 of 3 cohorts based on their preoperative body mass index: normal (18-25), overweight (25-30), and obese (>30). The primary outcomes assessed were postoperative shoulder instability and revision rates. The 3 groups were compared using the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) upper extremity, pain interference, pain intensity, Clinical Global Impression scores, visual analog scale pain scores, and shoulder range of motion at 1 year postoperatively. Results During the study period, 142 patients underwent ABR and had an average age of 35 ± 10 years. Obese patients had a higher percentage of partial rotator cuff tears (60% vs. 27%, odds ratio: 3.2 [1.1, 9.2]; P = .009), longer mean operative time (99.8 ± 40.0 vs. 75.7 ± 28.5 minutes; P < .001), and shorter time to complication (0.5 ± 0 vs. 7.0 ± 0 months; P = .038). After controlling for confounding factors, obesity was associated with a lesser improvement in upper extremity function scores (obese vs. normal: -4.9 [-9.4, -0.5]; P = .029); although this difference exists, found future studies are needed to determine the clinical significance. There were no differences in patient reported outcome measures, recurrence rate, or revision surgery rates between cohorts at any time point (P > .05). Conclusion Obesity is an independent risk factor for longer operative times but does not confer a higher risk of recurrent instability, revision surgery, or lower outcome scores 1 year following ABR.

Abstract
PURPOSE The extent of glenohumeral bone loss seen in anterior shoulder dislocations plays a major role in guiding surgical management of these patients. The need for accurate and reliable preoperative assessment of bone loss on imaging studies is therefore of paramount importance to orthopedic surgeons. This article will focus on the tools that are available to clinicians for quantifying glenoid bone loss with a focus on emerging trends and research in order to describe current practices. RECENT FINDINGS Recent evidence supports the use of 3D CT as the most optimal method for quantifying bone loss on the glenoid and humerus. New trends in the use of 3D and ZTE MRI represent exciting alternatives to CT imaging, although they are not widely used and require further investigation. Contemporary thinking surrounding the glenoid track concept and the symbiotic relationship between glenoid and humeral bone loss on shoulder stability has transformed our understanding of these lesions and has inspired a new focus of study for radiologists and orthopedist alike. Although a number of different advanced imaging modalities are utilized to detect and quantify glenohumeral bone loss in practice, the current literature supports 3D CT imaging to provide the most reliable and accurate assessments. The emergence of the glenoid track concept for glenoid and humeral head bone loss has inspired a new area of study for researchers that presents exciting opportunities for the development of a deeper understanding of glenohumeral instability in the future. Ultimately, however, the heterogeneity of literature, which speaks to the diverse practices that exist across the world, limits any firm conclusions from being drawn.

Abstract
Bony Bankart lesions of the anterior glenoid arise from traumatic glenohumeral instability events and can predispose persons to recurrent instability if not surgically stabilized. Large osseous fragments, when repaired anatomically, have excellent stability and functional outcomes; however, techniques to achieve this repair are often either tenuous or overcomplicated. In this technique guide, we describe a repair technique based on established biomechanical principles that achieves a reliable, anatomic glenoid articular surface. This technique can be readily applied in most bony Bankart settings using standard anterior labral repair instrumentation and implants.

Abstract
Deep learning has a profound impact on daily life. As Orthopedics makes use of this rapid escalation in technology, Orthopedic surgeons will need to take leadership roles on deep learning projects. Moreover, surgeons must possess an understanding of what is necessary to design and implement deep learning-based project pipelines. This review provides a practical guide for the Orthopedic surgeon to understand the steps needed to design, develop, and deploy a deep learning pipeline for clinical applications. A detailed description of the processes involved in defining the problem, building the team, acquiring and curating the data, labeling the data, establishing the ground truth, pre-processing and augmenting the data, and selecting the required hardware is provided. In addition, an overview of unique considerations involved in the training and evaluation of deep learning models is provided. This review strives to provide surgeons with the groundwork needed to identify gaps in the clinical landscape that deep learning models may be able to fill and equips them with the knowledge needed to lead an interdisciplinary team through the process of creating novel deep-learning-based solutions to fill those gaps.

3D-MRI versus 3D-CT in the evaluation of glenoid deformity in glenohumeral arthritis using Dixon 3D FLASH sequence. Skeletal Radiol 2022; 51:2281-2289. [PMID: 35737085 DOI: 10.1007/s00256-022-04086-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2022] [Revised: 05/25/2022] [Accepted: 05/27/2022] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare MRI with 3D reconstructions and 3D-CT with respect to assessment of glenoid wear in osteoarthritic shoulders. METHODS 3D reconstructions were generated for CT and MR (utilizing the Dixon technique) imaging performed on 29 osteoarthritic shoulders. Two reviewers independently performed glenoid morphometric measurements and evaluated glenoid erosion. Mean differences between the two modalities were calculated. Inter-observer agreement was calculated using kappa coefficient. RESULTS The combined mean absolute difference (bias) in glenoid version between 3D-CT and 3D-MRI was 2.7° ± 1.6° (range 0.15-7.85, P value = 0.7). The combined mean absolute difference in glenoid inclination between 3D-CT and 3D-MRI was 6.8° ± 4.1° (range 0.8°-15.75°, P value = 0.17). No significant inter-reader variation in glenoid version and inclination measurements on 3D-CT and 3D-MRI was found (P > 0.05). The inter-reader reliability for both CT and MRI was high for Walch grading of glenoid bone loss (κ = 1, κ = 0.81, respectively). CONCLUSIONS 3D-MRI is comparable to 3D-CT with respect to axial glenoid bone loss, as measured by glenoid version. However, for coronal bone loss estimation, measured by glenoid inclination, 3D-CT remains the gold standard. Thus, 3D-MR can be used as an alternative for preoperative assessment of glenoid version in arthritic shoulders.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The aim of this scoping review is to identify and summarize findings published in the literature over the past 5 years related to methods for assessment of bone loss in anterior shoulder instability. RECENT FINDINGS Of the 113 clinical studies included in this review, 76 reported a cutoff for glenoid bone loss when determining the patients indicated for one of the many stabilization procedures investigated. Bone loss on the glenoid side was evaluated most commonly with three-dimensional computed tomography (3D CT), and either linear or surface area-based methods were employed with the use of a best-fit circle. When combined with plain CT, the two methods comprise up to 70% of the reported measurement techniques for glenoid bone loss (79 of 113 studies). On the humeral side, Hill-Sachs lesions were assessed more heterogeneously, though plain CT or 3D CT remained the methods of choice in the majority of studies (43 of 68, 63.2%). Lastly, the glenoid track was assessed by 27 of 113 studies (23.9%), again most commonly with 3D CT (13 studies) and plain CT (seven studies). The assessment of glenoid and humeral bone loss is essential to treatment decisions for patient with recurrent anterior shoulder instability. Glenoid bone loss is most commonly assessed using cross-sectional imaging, most often 3D CT, and some variation of a best-fit circle applied to the inferior portion of the glenoid. Hill-Sachs lesion assessment was also commonly done using three-dimensional imaging; however, there was more variability in assessment methods across studies and there is an obvious need to unify the approach to humeral bone loss assessment for the purposes of improving treatment decisions and to better assess on-track and off-track lesions.

Abstract
Anterior shoulder instability is a common orthopaedic condition that often involves damage to the bony architecture of the glenohumeral joint in addition to the capsulolabral complex. Patients with recurrent shoulder dislocations are at increased risk for glenohumeral bone loss, as each instability event leads to the accumulation of additional glenoid and/or humeral head bone defects. Depending on the degree of bone loss, successful treatment may need to address bony lesions in addition to injured soft-tissue structures. As such, a thorough understanding of methods for evaluating bone loss preoperatively, in terms of location, size, and significance, is essential. Although numerous imaging modalities can be used, three-dimensional imaging has proven particularly useful and is now an integral component of preoperative planning.

Abstract
Purpose To determine the incidence of preoperative shoulder imaging, explore the prevalence of obtaining multiple advanced imaging studies, and identify patient characteristics associated with specific imaging studies before anterior versus posterior shoulder stabilization surgery. Methods The PearlDiver database was queried for patients who underwent anterior or posterior shoulder stabilization surgery from 2010 to 2019. The incidence of imaging studies within a year of surgery was collected. Patient characteristics were compared between groups using one-way analysis of variance or χ2 test. Results In total, 10,252 patients underwent anterior shoulder stabilization surgery, and 1,108 patients underwent posterior shoulder stabilization surgery. Imaging use before anterior and posterior shoulder stabilization surgery included plain radiographs (69%, 70%, respectively), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI; 43%, 33%), and computed tomography (CT; 22%, 22%). In total, 1,098 patients (11%) received MRI and CT before anterior stabilization surgery and 85 patients (8%) received MRI and CT before posterior stabilization surgery. Over time, the incidence of obtaining MRI and CT increased before anterior (z = 2.54, P = .011) and posterior (z = 2.36, P = .018) stabilization surgery. Conclusions This study highlights the increasing use of multiple imaging studies before shoulder stabilization surgery over recent years, including plain radiographs, MRI, and CT imaging. In total, 45% of anterior shoulder stabilization patients and 41% of posterior shoulder stabilization patients obtained more than 1 imaging study within a year of surgery, with a recent increase in patients obtaining both MR and CT scans preoperatively. Statement of Clinical Relevance The increasing use of multiple preoperative imaging studies observed in this study highlights an opportunity for new imaging technology to streamline and improve the preoperative workup.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the agreeability of femoral torsion measurements on axial and oblique axial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences in patients with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). METHODS Patients who underwent primary hip arthroscopy for FAIS between January 2012 to January 2019 were identified. Inclusion criteria were all patients with an MRI scan containing the pelvis and knee imaging. MRI-based measurements of femoral torsion were performed on axial and oblique-axial slices by 2 raters, and inter-rater and intrarater reliability was assessed. Bland Altman plots were constructed to evaluate the agreeability between femoral torsion measurements performed using axial and oblique-axial slices. Bivariate correlation analyses were performed to assess the relationship between measurement methods on each respective scan. A linear regression was performed between measurements performed using axial and oblique-axial sequences. RESULTS A total of 164 patients were included. The mean true-axial and oblique axial femoral torsion were 12.2° ± 9.9° and 11.1° ± 9.2°, respectively. The intrarater reliability for axial and oblique-axial measurements were 0.993 and 0.997, respectively. The inter-rater reliability for axial and oblique-axial measurements were 0.925 and 0.965, respectively. The number of differences within the limits of agreement for axial and oblique-axial femoral torsion measurements was 58.54%. On Pearson correlation analysis, strong positive correlations were found between oblique-axial measurements at multiple time points (r = 0.994, P < .001), as well as axial measurements at multiple time points (r = 0.986, P < .001). A strong positive correlation was found between axial and oblique-axial measurements (r = 0.894, P < .001). A significant regression equation indicated that for each additional increase in axial femoral torsion, the oblique-axial femoral torsion increased 0.837 (95% confidence interval 0.772-0.901). CONCLUSIONS Femoral torsion values measured on oblique-axial sequences are smaller than on true-axial sequences. Femoral torsion measurements on axial and oblique-axial MRI sequences exhibit poor agreement. Oblique-axial sequences demonstrated greater measurement consistency at multiple timepoints. When evaluating torsional measurements, it is important to delineate which axial sequence was used, especially in patients with suspected severe femoral antetorsion. Standardization of MRI femoral version protocols within one's practice can ensure more consistent decision-making, especially in patients with suspected femoral antetorsion. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Retrospective cohort, level III.

Abstract
The purpose of this in vitro study was to quantify the bone resected from the proximal femur during hip arthroscopy using metrics generated from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) reconstructed three-dimensional (3D) bone models. Seven cadaveric hemi-pelvises underwent both a 1.5 T MRI and CT scan before and following an arthroscopic proximal femoral osteochondroplasty. The images from MRI and CT were segmented to generate 3D proximal femoral surface models. A validated 3D--3D registration method was used to compare surface--to--surface distances between the 3D models before and following surgery. The new metrics of maximum height, mean height, surface area and volume, were computed to quantify bone resected during osteochondroplasty. Stability of the metrics across imaging modalities was established through paired sample t--tests and bivariate correlation. Bivariate correlation analyses indicated strong correlations between all metrics (r = 0.728--0.878) computed from MRI and CT derived models. There were no differences in the MRI- and CT-based metrics used to quantify bone resected during femoral osteochondroplasty. Preoperative- and postoperative MRI and CT derived 3D bone models can be used to quantify bone resected during femoral osteochondroplasty, without significant differences between the imaging modalities.

[PMID: 35044717 PMCID: PMC9305220 DOI: 10.1002/jmri.28067] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2021] [Revised: 12/31/2021] [Accepted: 01/05/2022] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increasingly utilized as a radiation‐free alternative to computed tomography (CT) for the diagnosis and treatment planning of musculoskeletal pathologies. MR imaging of hard tissues such as cortical bone remains challenging due to their low proton density and short transverse relaxation times, rendering bone tissues as nonspecific low signal structures on MR images obtained from most sequences. Developments in MR image acquisition and post‐processing have opened the path for enhanced MR‐based bone visualization aiming to provide a CT‐like contrast and, as such, ease clinical interpretation. The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of studies comparing MR and CT imaging for diagnostic and treatment planning purposes in orthopedic care, with a special focus on selective bone visualization, bone segmentation, and three‐dimensional (3D) modeling. This review discusses conventional gradient‐echo derived techniques as well as dedicated short echo time acquisition techniques and post‐processing techniques, including the generation of synthetic CT, in the context of 3D and specific bone visualization. Based on the reviewed literature, it may be concluded that the recent developments in MRI‐based bone visualization are promising. MRI alone provides valuable information on both bone and soft tissues for a broad range of applications including diagnostics, 3D modeling, and treatment planning in multiple anatomical regions, including the skull, spine, shoulder, pelvis, and long bones.

Abstract
AIMS The amount of glenoid bone loss is an important factor in deciding between soft-tissue and bony reconstruction when managing anterior shoulder instability. Accurate and reproducible measurement of glenoid bone loss is therefore vital in evaluation of shoulder instability and recommending specific treatment. The aim of this systematic review is to identify the range methods and measurement techniques employed in clinical studies treating glenoid bone loss. METHODS A systematic review of the PubMed, MEDLINE, and Embase databases was undertaken to cover a ten-year period from February 2011 to February 2021. We identified clinical studies that incorporated bone loss assessment in the methodology as part of the decision-making in the management of patients with anterior shoulder instability. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews (PRISMA) were used. RESULTS A total of 5,430 articles were identified from the initial search, of which 82 studies met the final inclusion criteria. A variety of imaging methods were used: three studies did not specify which modality was used, and a further 13 used CT or MRI interchangeably. There was considerable heterogeneity among the studies that specified the technique used to quantify glenoid bone loss. A large proportion of the studies did not specify the technique used. CONCLUSION This systematic review has identified significant heterogeneity in both the imaging modality and method used to measure glenoid bone loss. The recommendation is that as a minimum for publication, authors should be required to reference the specific measurement technique used. Without this simple standardization, it is impossible to determine whether any published paper should influence clinical practice or should be dismissed.

Abstract
Background Historically, imaging osseous detail in three dimensions required a computed tomography (CT) scan with ionizing radiation that poorly visualizes the soft tissues. The purpose of this study was to determine the accuracy and reliability of ultrashort echo time (UTE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in measuring humeral cortical thickness and cancellous density as compared with CT. Methods This was a comparative radiographic study in nine cadavers, each of which underwent CT and UTE MRI. On images aligned to the center of the humeral shaft, anterior, posterior, medial, and lateral humeral cortical thickness was measured 5, 10, and 15 cm distal to the top of the head. Cancellous density was measured as signal within a 1-cm diameter region of interest in the center of the head, the subtuberosity head, the subarticular head, and the subarticular glenoid vault. Glenoid cortical thickness was measured at the center of the glenoid. Cortical measurements were compared using mean differences and 95% confidence intervals, paired Student’s t-tests, and intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs). We compared cancellous measurements using Pearson’s correlation coefficients. For all measurements, we calculated interobserver and intraobserver reliability using ICCs with 0.75 as the lower limit for acceptability. Results With regard to accuracy, for humeral cortical thickness measurements, there were no significant differences between MRI and CT measures, and ICCs were >0.75. The glenoid cortical thickness ICC was <0.75. There was no significant correlation between the cancellous signal on MRI and on CT in any region. For both MRI and CT, interobserver reliability and intraobserver reliability were acceptable (ie, >0.75) for almost all humeral cortical thickness measures. Conclusion UTE MRI can reliably and accurately measure humeral cortical thickness, but cannot accurately measure cancellous density or accurately and reliably measure glenoid cortical thickness.

Abstract
Magnetic resonance imaging provides a comprehensive evaluation of the shoulder including the rotator cuff muscles and tendons, glenoid labrum, long head biceps tendon, and glenohumeral and acromioclavicular joint articulations. Most institutions use two-dimensional sequences acquired in all three imaging planes to accurately evaluate the many important structures of the shoulder. Recently, the addition of three-dimensional (3D) acquisitions with 3D reconstructions has become clinically feasible and helped improve our understanding of several important pathologic conditions, allowing us to provide added value for referring clinicians. This article briefly describes techniques used in 3D imaging of the shoulder and discusses applications of these techniques including measuring glenoid bone loss in anterior glenohumeral instability. We also review the literature on routine 3D imaging for the evaluation of common shoulder abnormalities as 3D imaging will likely become more common as imaging software continues to improve.

Abstract
CT is the imaging modality of choice for assessment of 3D bony morphology but incurs the penalty of ionizing radiation. Improving the ability of 3D MRI to provide high-resolution images of cortical bone with CT-like bone contrast has been a focus of recent research. The ability of 3D MRI to deliver cortical bone information with similar diagnostic performance to CT would complement assessment of soft tissues and medullary bone from a single MRI examination, simplifying evaluation and obviating radiation exposure from additional CT. This article presents an overview of current 3D MRI approaches for imaging cortical bone with CT-like bone contrast including ultrashort echo time, zero echo time, T1-weighted gradient recalled echo, susceptibility-weighted imaging and deep learning techniques. We also discuss clinical implementation of an optimized stack-of-stars 3D gradient recalled echo pulse sequence (3D-Bone) on commercially available MRI scanners for rendering 3D MRI with CT-like bone contrast in our institutional practice.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Computerized tomography (CT) is the modality of choice for imaging bone; however, it utilizes ionizing radiation and suffers from poor soft-tissue contrast. Unlike CT, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides excellent soft-tissue contrast but is limited in its ability to image bone. The objective of this study is to describe a new technical innovation which provides superior cortical and trabecular bone contrast on MRI. METHODS FRACTURE (fast field echo resembling a CT using restricted echo-spacing), a 3D gradient echo pulse sequence with restricted echo-spacing combined with an automated post-processing, is described. RESULTS Cases demonstrating the application and utility of this technique in diagnostic MRI performed for traumatic, inflammatory, neoplastic, and developmental conditions in pediatric patients are presented. CONCLUSION The cortical and trabecular bone contrast generated by FRACTURE yields clinically relevant information for diagnosis and management of a subset of patients in whom it may potentially obviate the need for a preoperative CT scan.

Abstract
PURPOSE To establish an international expert consensus, using the modified Delphi technique, on the evaluation and management of glenohumeral instability with associated bone loss. METHODS A working group of 6 individuals generated a list of statements related to history and physical examination, imaging and specialized diagnostic tests, bone loss quantification and classification, treatment outcomes and complications, and rehabilitation for the management of glenohumeral instability associated with bone loss to form the basis of an initial survey for rating by a group of experts. The expert group (composed of 22 high-volume glenohumeral instability experts) was surveyed on 3 occasions to establish a consensus on the statements. Items with over 70% agreement and less than 10% disagreement achieved consensus. RESULTS After a total of 3 rounds, 31 statements achieved consensus. Eighty-six percent of the experts agreed that a history of multiple dislocations and failed soft-tissue surgery should raise suspicion about the possibility of an associated bone deficit. Ninety-five percent of the experts agreed that 3-dimensional (3D) computed tomography (CT) is the most accurate diagnostic method to evaluate and quantify bone loss. Eighty-six percent of the experts agreed that any of the available methods to measure glenoid bone deficiency is adequate; however, 91% of the experts thought that an en face view of the glenoid using 3D CT provides the most accurate method. Ninety-five percent of the experts agreed that Hill-Sachs lesions are poorly quantified and classified by current imaging systems. Ninety percent of the experts agreed that in cases with a glenoid bone deficit greater than 20%, glenoid bone graft reconstruction should be performed and any of the available options is valid. There was no consensus among experts on how Hill-Sachs injuries should be managed or on how postoperative rehabilitation should be carried out. CONCLUSIONS The essential statements on which the experts reached consensus included the following: A history of multiple dislocations and failed soft-tissue surgery should make surgeons consider the possibility of an associated bone deficit. Three-dimensional CT is the most accurate diagnostic method to evaluate and quantify bone loss. Although any of the available methods to measure glenoid bone deficiency is adequate, an en face view of the glenoid using 3D CT provides the most accurate method. Hill-Sachs lesions are poorly quantified and classified by current imaging systems. Finally, in cases with a glenoid bone deficit greater than 20%, glenoid bone graft reconstruction should be performed. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level V, consensus statement.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To conduct a systematic review of modern literature data on the modern approaches in diagnosis and treatment of shoulder instability. MATERIAL AND METHODS Searching for literature data was performed using the Pubmed and Google Scholar databases. RESULTS The authors analyzed the results of conservative treatment of patients with shoulder instability and emphasized higher risk of instability recurrence, degeneration of anatomical structures and functional impairment in these patients. Surgery is advisable to restore shoulder stability and normalize its function. Several methods for stabilizing the shoulder have been proposed. The approaches to diagnosis and treatment of shoulder instability have been updated. CONCLUSION Successful treatment of shoulder instability is based on qualitative and complete assessment of soft tissues and bone structures. An individual approach considering bone tissue deficiency and individual needs of the patient is required.

Abstract
Backgroud Recent literature suggests that three-dimensional magnetic resonance imaging (3D MRI) can replace 3D computed tomography (3D CT) when evaluating glenoid bone loss in patients with shoulder instability. We aimed to examine if 2D MRI in conjunction with a validated predictive formula for assessment of glenoid height is equivalent to the gold standard 3D CT scans for patients with recurrent glenohumeral instability. Methods Patients with recurrent shoulder instability and available imaging were retrospectively reviewed. Glenoid height on 3D CT and 2D MRI was measured by two blinded raters. Difference and equivalence testing were performed using a paired t-test and two one-sided tests, respectively. The interclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was used to test for interrater reliability, and percent agreement between the measurements of one reviewer was used to assess intrarater reliability. Results Using an equivalence margin of 1 mm, 3D CT and 2D MRI were found to be different (p = 0.123). The mean glenoid height was significantly different when measured on 2D MRI (39.09 ± 2.93 mm) compared to 3D CT (38.71 ± 2.89 mm) (p = 0.032). The mean glenoid width was significantly different between 3D CT (30.13 ± 2.43 mm) and 2D MRI (27.45 ± 1.72 mm) (p < 0.001). The 3D CT measurements had better interrater agreement (ICC, 0.91) than 2D MRI measurements (ICC, 0.8). intrarater agreement was also higher on CT. Conclusions Measurements of glenoid height using 3D CT and 2D MRI with subsequent calculation of the glenoid width using a validated methodology were not equivalent, and 3D CT was superior. Based on the validated methods for the measurement of glenoid bone loss on advanced imaging studies, 3D CT study must be preferred over 2D MRI in order to estimate the amount of glenoid bone loss in candidates for shoulder stabilization surgery and to assist in surgical decision-making.

Abstract
The coexistence of glenoid and humeral head bone defects may increase the risk of recurrence of instability after soft tissue repair. Revealed factors in medical history such as male gender, younger age of dislocation, an increasing number of dislocations, contact sports, and manual work or epilepsy may increase the recurrence rate of instability. In physical examination, positive bony apprehension test, catching and crepitations in shoulder movement may suggest osseous deficiency. Anteroposterior and axial views allow for the detection of particular bony lesions in patients with recurrent anterior shoulder instability. Computed Tomography (CT) with multiplanar reconstruction (MPR) and various types of 3D rendering in 2D (quasi-3D-CT) and 3D (true-3D-CT) space allows not only detection of glenoid and humeral bone defects but most of all their quantification and relations (engaging/not-engaging and on-track/off-track) in the context of bipolar lesion. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increasingly developing and can provide an equally accurate measurement tool for bone assessment, avoiding radiation exposure for the patient.

Abstract
Traumatic anterior shoulder instability is prevalent among young athletes, and recurrent dislocations can result in compromised upper extremity function, increasing glenohumeral bone loss, and ultimately, posttraumatic arthritis. Although management algorithms have evolved in response to contemporary data and technical innovation, the arthroscopic Bankart repair continues to be a mainstay for the primary surgical management of first-time or recurrent anterior shoulder instability with marginal attritional glenoid bone loss (ie, <10% to 15%) and/or "on track" Hill-Sachs defects. The advantages of arthroscopic stabilization include its minimally invasive technique, high cost effectiveness, and relatively low recurrence rates and propensity for perioperative complications. The current article reviews contemporary indications/contraindications, management of the first-time dislocator, critical glenoid bone loss, surgical technique, and reported clinical outcomes of the arthroscopic Bankart repair.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the 3-dimensional (3D) zero echo time (ZTE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique and compare it with 3D computed tomography (CT) for the assessment of the glenoid bone. METHODS ZTE MRI using multiple resolutions and multislice CT were performed in 6 shoulder specimens before and after creation of glenoid defects and in 10 glenohumeral instability patients. Two musculoskeletal radiologists independently generated 3D volume-rendered images of the glenoid en face. Post-processing times and glenoid widths were measured. Inter-modality and inter-rater agreement was assessed. RESULTS Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) for inter-modality assessment showed almost perfect agreement for both readers, ranging from 0.949 to 0.991 for the ex vivo study and from 0.955 to 0.987 for the in vivo patients. Excellent interobserver agreement was found for both the ex vivo (ICCs ≥ 0.98) and in vivo (ICCs ≥ 0.92) studies. For the ex vivo study, Bland-Altman analyses for CT versus MRI showed a mean difference of 0.6 to 1 mm at 1.0-mm3 MRI resolution, 0.3 to 0.6 mm at 0.8-mm3 MRI resolution, and 0.3 to 0.6 mm at 0.6-mm3 MRI resolution for both readers. For the in vivo study, Bland-Altman analyses for CT versus MRI showed a mean difference of 0.6 to 0.8 mm at 1.0-mm3 MRI resolution, 0.5 to 0.6 mm at 0.8-mm3 MRI resolution, and 0.4 to 0.8 mm at 0.7-mm3 MRI resolution for both readers. Mean post-processing times to generate 3D images of the glenoid ranged from 32 to 46 seconds for CT and from 33 to 64 seconds for ZTE MRI. CONCLUSIONS Three-dimensional ZTE MRI can potentially be considered as a technique to determine glenoid width and can be readily incorporated into the clinical workflow. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level II, development of diagnostic criteria (consecutive patients with consistently applied reference standard and blinding).

Abstract
Glenoid bone loss must be recognized when treating patients with shoulder instability to appropriately determine surgical treatment with either a soft-tissue stabilization or bony augmentation procedure. Three-dimensional reconstructions from computed tomography scans currently are the clinical gold standard for accurately evaluating glenoid bone loss. Novel advances in magnetic resonance imaging sequences and processing may allow for obtaining complete bony information from a single preoperative imaging study.

J Orthop Res 2020; 38:2050-2056.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to validate three-dimensional (3D) proximal femoral surface models generated from a 1.5 T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) by comparing these 3D models to those derived from the clinical "gold standard" of computed tomography (CT) scan and to ground-truth surface models obtained by laser scans (LSs) of the excised femurs. Four intact bilateral cadaveric pelvis specimens underwent CT and MRI scans and 3D surface models were generated. Six femurs were extracted from these specimens, and the overlying soft tissues were removed. The extracted femurs were then laser scanned to produce a ground-truth surface model. A 3D-3D registration method was used to compare the signed and absolute surface-to-surface distances between the 3D models. Absolute agreement was evaluated using a 95% confidence interval (CI) derived from the precision of the LS ground-truth. Paired samples t tests and Kolmogrov-Smirnov tests were performed to compare the differences between the signed and absolute surface-to-surface distances between the models. The average signed surface-to-surface distances for the MRI vs LS and MRI vs CT models were 0.07 and 0.16 mm, respectively. These differences fell within the 95% CI of ±0.20 mm indicating absolute agreement between the surface models generated from these modalities. The signed surface-to-surface distance was significantly smaller for MRI vs LS ground truth model as compared with the CT vs LS model. Femoral models derived from a 1.5 T MRI scan demonstrated absolute agreement with the clinical gold standard of CT-derived models and were most like LS ground truth models of the excised femurs.

Accuracy of Currently Available Methods in Quantifying Anterior Glenoid Bone Loss: Controversy Regarding Gold Standard-A Systematic Review. Arthroscopy 2020; 36:2295-2313.e1. [PMID: 32330485 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2020.04.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2019] [Revised: 02/21/2020] [Accepted: 04/09/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the accuracy of glenoid bone loss-measuring methods and assess the influence of the imaging modality on the accuracy of the measurement methods. METHODS A literature search was performed in the PubMed (MEDLINE), Embase, and Cochrane databases from 1994 to June 11, 2019. The guidelines and algorithm of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) were used. Included for analysis were articles reporting the accuracy of glenoid bone loss-measuring methods in patients with anterior shoulder instability by comparing an index test and a reference test. Furthermore, articles were included if anterior glenoid bone loss was quantified using a ruler during arthroscopy or by measurements on plain radiograph(s), computed tomography (CT) images, or magnetic resonance images in living humans. The risk of bias was determined using the Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies (QUADAS-2) tool. RESULTS Twenty-one studies were included, showing 17 different methods. Three studies reported on the accuracy of methods performed on 3-dimensional CT. Two studies determined the accuracy of glenoid bone loss-measuring methods performed on radiography by comparing them with methods performed on 3-dimensional CT. Six studies determined the accuracy of methods performed using imaging modalities with an arthroscopic method as the reference. Eight studies reported on the influence of the imaging modality on the accuracy of the methods. There was no consensus regarding the gold standard. Because of the heterogeneity of the data, a quantitative analysis was not feasible. CONCLUSIONS Consensus regarding the gold standard in measuring glenoid bone loss is lacking. The use of heterogeneous data and varying methods contributes to differences in the gold standard, and accuracy therefore cannot be determined. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, systematic review of Level II, III, and IV studies.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine, in the context of measuring bone loss in shoulder instability, whether measurement differences between magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT), linear-based and area-based methods, and observers altered the proposed treatment when a standardized algorithm was applied. METHODS This was a retrospective, comparative imaging study of preoperative patients with anterior shoulder instability with both an MRI and CT scan within 1 year of one another. On parasagittal images reoriented en face to the glenoid, 2 attending orthopaedic surgeons measured glenoid width, glenoid area, glenoid defect width, and glenoid defect area. On axial images maximal Hill-Sachs width was measured. From these, linear percent glenoid bone loss (%GBL) and area %GBL were calculated, and on-versus off-track was determined. With these results, a recommended treatment was determined by applying a standardized algorithm, in which the Latarjet procedure was selected for %GBL >20%, arthroscopic labral repair and remplissage for off-track lesions with %GBL <20%, and arthroscopic labral repair on-track shoulders with %GBL <20%. RESULTS In total, 53 patients with mean ± standard deviation 45 ± 83 days between scans were include with a CT linear %GBL of 23.5 ± 9.6% (range 0%-47%). CT lead to larger measurements of %GBL than MRI (linear P = .008, area P = .003), and fewer shoulders being considered on-track (33.0% vs 40.5%), which would alter treatment in 25% to 34%. Linear measurements produced larger values for %GBL (CT, P < .001; MRI, P < .001), which would alter treatment in 25%. For %GBL, inter-rater reliability was good, with intraclass correlation coefficients varying from 0.727 to 0.832 and Kappa varying from 0.57 to 0.62, but these inter-rater differences would alter treatment in 31%. CONCLUSIONS The significant differences in bone loss measurement between imaging modality, measurement method, and observers may lead to differences in treatment in up to 34% of cases. Linear CT measurements resulted in the most aggressive treatment recommendations. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Retrospective Comparative Study: Diagnostic, Level III.

Abstract
In this review we summarise over 15 years of research and development around the prediction of whole bones strength from Computed Tomography data, with particular reference to the prediction of the risk of hip fracture in osteoporotic patients. We briefly discuss the theoretical background, and then provide a summary of the laboratory and clinical validation of these modelling technologies. We then discuss the three current clinical applications: in clinical research, in clinical trials, and in clinical practice. On average the strength predicted with finite element models (QCT-FE) based on computed tomography is 7% more accurate that that predicted with areal bone mineral density from Dual X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA-aBMD), the current standard of care, both in term of laboratory validation on cadaver bones and in terms of stratification accuracy on clinical cohorts of fractured and non-fractured women. This improved accuracy makes QCT-FE superior to DXA-aBMD in clinical research and in clinical trials, where the its use can cut in half the number of patients to be enrolled to get the same statistical power. For routine clinical use to decide who to treat with antiresorptive drugs, QCT-FE is more accurate but less cost-effective than DXA-aBMD, at least when the decision is on first line treatment like bisphosphonates. But the ability to predict skeletal strength from medical imaging is now opening a number of other applications, for example in paediatrics and oncology.

Nakagawa S. Editorial Commentary: Is Arthroscopic Bankart Repair Using Suture Anchors on the Glenoid Appropriate Treatment for Traumatic Anterior Shoulder Instability? Arthroscopy 2019; 35:2509-2511. [PMID: 31395193 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2019.03.039] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2019] [Accepted: 03/26/2019] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
Fracture of the anterior glenoid rim along the sites of suture anchor insertion is not rare after arthroscopic Bankart repair for traumatic anterior shoulder instability. In addition to the influence of the number, type, and size of the suture anchors, placing multiple anchors in a linear arrangement might impose excessive stress on the surrounding bone, leading to critical loss of osseous integrity and glenoid fracture. Although highly active young male collision or contact athletes are most at risk, such fractures sometimes occur after relatively minor trauma at a long interval after surgery, suggesting persistent impairment of bone quality. In patients with postoperative recurrence of instability, detailed examination using computed tomography is recommended.
