Bishop et al. [42]: Cadaveric study
|
Radiography; 2DCT; 3DCT; MRI
|
7 cadavers
|
Observers measured bone loss using his/her usual approach (Methods not specified)
|
Overall agreement with gold standard (kappa score):
|
Assessment:
| |
3DCT 0.5
|
Serial imaging of shoulder after osteotomies of 0 %, <12 %, 12-25 %, 25-40 %; manually measured glenoid width through bare area using a digital caliper (gold standard); 12 observers measured twice
| |
CT 0.4
|
Outcome:
| |
MRI 0.28
|
Reliability
| |
Radiography 0.15
|
| |
Intra-observer reliability (kappa):
|
| |
3DCT 0.59
|
| |
CT 0.64
|
| |
MRI 0.51

Bois et al. [63]: Laboratory study
|
2DCT; 3DCT
|
Sawbones:1 model for anterior defect; 1 model for anteroinferior defect
|
2DCT & 3DCT:
|
2D CT methods (ICC, PE):
|
Assessment:
|
Indicators: linear width/length (W/L) ratio; defect length; quantifiers: glenoid index (injured glenoid inferior circle diameter relative to uninjured glenoid diameter)
|
Defect length: 0.81, 7.68
|
Osteotomies made at 0, 15 %, and 30 % of inferior glenoid circle diameter; gold standard measurement (3D laser scanner of model); 6 observers measured all 7 techniques
|
3DCT:
|
W/L ratio: 0.50, −16.34
|
Outcome:
|
Quantifiers: linear ratio (d/R; d = radius to defect, R = circle radius); Pico method (3 variations):
|
Glenoid index, 0.3, −4.13
|
Reliability, PE
|
(1) Original circle method
|
3D CT (ICC, PE):
|
|
(2) Based on contralateral normal glenoid circle with 3 points of reference
|
Defect length: 0.90, 0.29
|
|
(3) Based on remaining intact glenoid cortex
|
W/L ratio: 0.88, −2.41
|
| |
Glenoid index: 0.69, 0.01 (0.85, 3.39 with other software platform)
|
| |
Linear ratio: 0.97, 29.9
|
| |
Pico (1): 0.98, 4.93
|
| |
Pico (2): 0.84, 7.32
|
| |
Pico (3): 0.86, 12.14
|
| |
Note: Pico method (1) based on the contralateral, intact glenoid and Glenoid Index on 3DCT were most reliable & accurate; Glenoid Index on 2DCT was deemed invalid
