Research summary
This project will analyse a series of 30 CT scans of ankles reported previously as demonstrating ankle osteoarthritis, 30 CT scans showing fractures around the ankkle and 30 CT scans reported as demonstrating osteochondral defects, by radiologists at Addenbrooke's Hospital, Cambridge. These will be compared with a previously established normative data set to assess changes due to pathology in the morphology of the ankle joint and its component structures.
The imaging from patients to be included in the study will be retrospectively reviewed by a member of the clinical care team, fully anonymised.REC name
