Brief Summary   I wish to undertake a project entitled use of smartphone applications to increase the accuracy of acetabular cup placement during total hip arthroplasty.
The research aiims to improve the accuracy of acetabular cup placement during total hip arthroplasty as the positioning of the cup is a vital part of the operative procedure and not many techniques are available. Most of the surgeons just use free hand technique for the placement of the cup which is very subjective.
With this project we can develop a cheap, accurate and easy to use technique for the positioning of the acetabular cup during total hip arhtroplasty.
