Measuring Knee Alignment Following Distal Femur Fracture Surgery: A Novel Deep Learning Approach
Objectives To evaluate whether a machine learning-based system can accurately measure coronal knee alignment parameters from routine postoperative radiographs following surgical fixation of distal femur fractures. Methods Design: Retrospective cohort study. Setting Single-center academic orthopedic trauma practice. Patient selection criteria Adult patients 50 years of age or older who underwent surgical fixation of low-energy OTA/AO 33A and 33C distal femur fractures (including periprosthetic fractures) between…
Measuring Knee Alignment Following Distal Femur Fracture Surgery: A Novel Deep Learning Approach: Pearson correlation coefficients ranged from 0.4 to 1.0, and Bland-Altman analysis demonstrated minimal systematic bias, with 95% of differences falling within a clinically acceptable range of ±5°.

How to verify without trusting this page
Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-1778 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
