Dynamic Roentgen stereophotogrammetry has proven valuable in the evaluation of fixation for hip and knee arthroplasty, as early RSA evaluations have shown high predictive value for later aseptic component loosening. In contrast, Dynamic RSA makes it possible to accurately assess both micro movements in the fixation interface and kinematics of the prosthetic components in three dimensions, during active motions. 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
Harley A. Wilhelm Mallinckrodt, Union Carbide and DuPont began producing uranium by the Ames process, and Ames phased out its own production by early 1945. The Ames Laboratory also produced of extremely pure cerium for the cerium sulphide crucibles used by the plutonium metallurgists. Fears that world supplies of uranium were limited led to experiments with thorium, which could be irradiated to produce fissile uranium-233. A calcium reduction process was developed for thorium, and produced some . After World War II, Spedding and Wilhelm founded the Institute of Atomic Research and the Ames Laboratory of the Atomic Energy Commission. Wilhelm became its associate
