Biomatlab - Ongoing Projects
Main content
Biomatlab have organised their activities under four thematic areas, of which there are ongoing research projects:
Retrieval analysis and clinical trials of knee and hip replacements.
- NAVIO (robotic and navigation) vs conventinal Journey II knee (RSA-study) (2020-2027). PI: 1. aman. overlege 脴ystein G酶thesen, PhD-cand. 脴. Sk氓den. Haugesund.
听 - Persona study: A randomized controlled clinical and RSA study of 2 total knee replacement designs (2018-2025). A comparison of Nexgen CR and Persona CR. Project leader: MD Mona Badawy and Prof. MD Ove Furnes. PhD-cand. Kristine O. Lindemann and Jenny Austrheim Hellerud, Coastal Hospital in Hagevik/L忙rdal Hospital
听 - A comparative randomized study of 5 articulations in total hip replacements - 10 years of follow up with RSA, metal ion levels in blood, CT and MRI scans. Project leaders: Geir Hallan MD, PhD and Prof. Ove Furnes MD, PhD. Associated project by medical student H氓kon Greve Johannessen at The Medical Student Research Programme at The Faculty of Medicine.
