Comparative Analysis and Accuracy of Surgeon- and Prosthesis Manufacturer–Generated Radiographic Templates in Total Hip Arthroplasty

PM templating demonstrated a reasonable ability to predict implant sizes in THA, with comparable performance to high-volume, fellowship-trained arthroplasty surgeons. While surgeon-generated templates outperformed PM templates in offset prediction, these findings suggest that industry-generated templates could be a valuable tool for surgical planning and inventory management in hospitals.
