    Total knee arthroplasty revision occurs in 13% of cases within 10 years, with implant loosening being a primary reason in approximately 30% of cases.

  • 2

    Current diagnostic methods for aseptic loosening, including various imaging modalities, often lead to incorrect diagnoses and potential unnecessary surgeries.

  • 3

    A new non-invasive method using CT scans under varus and valgus loading allows for direct measurement of tibial implant displacement.

  • 4

    This study aims to automate the segmentation process in tibial implant displacement analysis by replacing semi-automatic methods with a fully automatic deep learning model.

  • 5

    The proposed workflow was evaluated using cadaver and patient datasets to assess the performance of the fully automatic segmentation model against the current method.
