Abstract

We compared the reliability of computer-assisted radiographic analysis (CARA) and visual evaluation of radiographs to assess host-graft junctions. 68 host bone/allograft junctions were obtained from an ongoing study on bone allografting in sheep. At 6 months, the grafted tibias were explanted and healing of the host-graft junctions were macroscopically determined. 49 junctions were macroscopically healed, whereas 19 had not united. 51 (0.8) of the junctions were correctly classified by radiographs, while 63 (0.9) of the junctions were correctly classified by CARA (p = 0.03). These findings warrant further evaluation in a clinical setting.
