Current methods used to measure total disc replacement (TDR) radiographic range of motion (ROM) have not been previously evaluated. Sagittal ROM is measured by determining the change in the Cobb angle of the prosthesis from the flexion to the extension radiographs. Either the metallic endplates or the keels of the TDR prosthesis can be used as radiographic landmarks in measuring ROM. We hypothesized that use of the prosthesis keels as radiographic landmarks, when compared with the use of prosthesis endplates, might lead to more precise measurements of TDR sagittal ROM.
