DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSTICS OF ASEPTIC AND SEPTIC LOOSENING OF THE CUP OF THE ENDOPROSTHESIS OF THE ARTIFICIAL HIP JOINT BY THE METHODS OF POLARISATION TOMOGRAPHY

Abstract

Manuscript contains structural-logical scheme and analytical description of the differential diagnosis of aseptic and septic loosening of the artificial hip joint endoprosthesis using the methods of differential Mueller-matrix mapping of circular birefringence (CB) distributions of polycrystalline synovial films (SF) and results of determining the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of the wavelet analysis method of differential Mueller-matrix mapping of the distributions of the CB values of polycrystalline films SF patients from the control group and groups with different severity of the hip joint pathology.
