Two-Dimensional Preoperative Digital Templating is Less Accurate When Using a Collared Triple Taper Stem Versus a Single Taper Design
The accuracy of conventional templating for CTTS is lower than the predecessor STS, with the template often suggesting a larger size. Bi-planar or 3-dimensional preoperative templating could potentially be a more accurate technique, especially during the initial learning curve with these stems.
