Radiological assessment of cup anteversion with a novel 3D-printed highly-porous titanium dual mobility cup
RA measurements are more consistent, repeatable and accurate with a titanium DMC than standard DMC, due to the minor radiopacity of the former cup which enable RA measurements on AP radiographs. Conversely, RA measurements of conventional DMC are more consistent but less accurate if performed on cross-table lateral radiographs by Woo-Morrey method than AP radiographs.
