Can EOS and lateral pelvic radiographs reliably identify patient with reduced pelvic roll back at risk for dislocation ?
There are discrepancies between EOS and conventional lateral radiographs in measuring sacral slope and change in sacral slope from sitting to standing and both imaging modalities might identify different high-risk patients for dislocation. Efforts need to be made to standardize the patients' position at the time of imaging.
