Samenvatting

In this thesis the research on the automatic constructing of intelligible digitally reconstructed radiographs (DRR’s) of the hips is described. This project was initialized when the Department of Orthopedic surgery, within UMC Utrecht, decided to research the relation between spinopelvic parameters and osteoarthritis (OA) of the hip.
During the project a product has been designed and programmed that facilitates the scoring of OA through automated creation of DRRs.
