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) directive included the curie, rad, rem and roentgen as permissible units, but required that the use of the rad, rem and roentgen be reviewed before 31 December 1977. This document defined the roentgen as exactly 2.58 × 10 C/kg, as per the ICRU recommendation. Directive 80/181/EEC, published in December 1979, which replaced directive 71/354/EEC, explicitly catalogued the gray, becquerel and sievert for this purpose and required that the curie, rad, rem and roentgen be phased out by 31 December 1985. Today the roentgen is rarely used, and the International Committee for Weights and Measures (CIPM) never accepted the use of
