Introduction. RSA is a powerful research technique that is currently being studied at Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) for joint replacement patients. RSA stands for r adio s tereometric a nalysis, which describes a special way of taking two x-rays from different directions at the same time, creating a âstereoâ image.SA has been used for over 30 years in Europe and for 5 years at Hospital for Special Surgery. The only potential risks come from implantation of the marker beads. 1  The insertion of beads takes an additional 5 to 10 minutes of surgery.
