Quote from: TemakiSushi on September 26, 2019, 04:07:43 PMAnother concern is that with your X-rays it seems bones are intentionally hidden by rulers
Why an orthopedist allow a radiologist to take such ridiculous X-rays
This is not concern it is negativity from your side. There is nothing hidden, metal scale is transparent.
What is ridiculous in this xray???
Today I am going for routine xray. I will post with and without metal scale
Indian Girl - 7.5 cm tibia with Dr. Sarin
I am planning to stop at 7.2 cm. My target was 7 to 7.5 cm
Today I went for xray
I got 6.5 cm on right leg and 7 cm on left leg by metal scale measurements. Computerized measurements show 7.4 cm in right leg and 8.1 cm in left leg. I consider metal scale measurements as a true measurements.
I will do 2 mm more in left leg and 7 mm in right leg.
Most probably I will remove my frame Thursday or Friday.
Here my xray with measurements

That's right the metal scale measurement is the correct measurement.
Where do you get this rule with the roles? How do you fix it in your legs for xrays?

Hello Michael01.
They have this ruler . It is not mine.
They put ruler on my tibia during x-ray.
Firstly they mark proximal osteotomy point and then distal point on tibia, then they put metal scale on my tibia with the help of surgical tape.

How are you??
Doing great thanks for asking.
Tommorow I am going to hospital to remove my external frame.
I am hoping 7.2 to 7.4 cm. Let's see how much would I gain.
After 7 cm frame give you discomfort and you just want to remove it
I am happy I am removing it tommorow.

Hi Indian Girl
your X-ray fully blank there is no bone formation seen ,How your doctor allow this much stretch without callus.
And where is written metal scale is right is there any reference for measurement. Don't make people fool or yourself too.

Hello Atypical
I already told in my post many times.i really don't care about callus as I am still lengthening. I will take it seriously after six weeks after removal of frame. I saw many patients during lengthening they don't have callus but during consolidation phase they have good callus.
Computerized measurements showed 8.1 cm ,how can I gain this? Because I did only 7.4 cm distraction. I believe metal scale is good method because it showed 7 cm.
Reason--
Because you don't get 100% lengthening with LON external frame because of wires and pins .
Here is link about magnification in x-ray

I am not fooling anybody .I am writing here my experience. You can think what ever you want it is up to you.
