Dynamic Roentgen stereophotogrammetry Dynamic Roentgen stereophotogrammetry Dynamic Roentgen stereophotogrammetry (also referred to as dynamic RSA) is a modern and sophisticated x-ray recording method, used to measure real-time 3D motions of prostheses and bones during motion with high accuracy. It is mostly used in orthopedic research settings and is an advancement of conventional RSA. Conventional static RSA is used to evaluate migration of prosthesis with respect to the bone in three dimensions as a function of time. Migration of the prosthesis are normal 12‐24 months after the surgery. Ongoing migration increase the risk of aseptic loosening with revision surgery as a consequence. The method
Roentgen (unit) 0.2 roentgen per day in 1934. In 1950, the ICRP reduced their recommended limit to 0.3 roentgen per week for whole-body exposure. The International Commission on Radiation Units and Measurements (ICRU) took over the definition of the roentgen in 1950, defining it as "the quantity of X or γ-radiation such that the associated corpuscular emission per 0.001293 gram of air produces, in air, ions carrying 1 electrostatic unit of quantity of electricity of either sign." The 3 MeV cap was no longer part of the definition, but the degraded usefulness of this unit at high beam energies was mentioned in
