title: [Determination of the antetorsional angle at the femur with axial computer tomography].
abstract: The antetorsional angle was determined in several patients as well as in an isolated femoral bone by means of computer tomography. A comparison with Rippsteins method shows good correlation, taking different definitions of the antetorsional angle into consideration. Due to a mathematical correction method, the CT determination method is independent of the positioning of the patient.
