Impact of bone and cartilage segmentation from CT and MRI on both bone forearm osteotomy planning

ConclusionThis study indicates that although bone realignment remained largely similar when using MRI with and without cartilage information compared to using CT, the small differences in segmentation could induce statistically and clinically significant differences in the osteotomy planning. We also showed that endochondral cartilage might be a non-negligible factor when planning osteotomies for young patients.
