The purpose of this study was to compare pre-operative acetabular cup parameters using this novel dynamic imaging sequence to the Lewinnek safe zone We retrospectively reviewed 350 consecutive primary THAs that underwent dynamic pre-operative acetabular cup planning utilizing a pre-operative CT scan to capture the individual's hip anatomy, followed by standing (posterior pelvic tilt), sitting (anterior pelvic tilt), and supine X-rays. Using these inputs, we modeled an optimal cup position for each patient. Radiographic parameters including inclination, anteversion, pelvic tilt, pelvic incidence, and lumbar flexion were analyzed.Introduction
