In certain clinical populations, such as intensive care (ICU) patients, specific features of the psoas muscle measured by abdominal CT have been used to assess the nutritional status of the patient. Abdominal CT is not performed routinely as it exposes the patient to ionizing radiation (X-rays) and can only be performed intermittently.\n\nThe measurement of the thigh muscles (rectus femoris muscle, part of the quadriceps muscle) by handheld musculoskeletal (MSK) ultrasound is a simple, safe (no ionizing radiation) and repeatable (can be easily performed on a daily basis) technique. A correlation has been shown between muscle parameters of the psoas muscle (abdominal CT) and the rectus femoris muscle (MSK). A direct comparison between muscle parameters of the same skeletal muscle measured with both CT and MSK has not been done.\n\nIntramuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) is a measure of the extent of adipose tissue deposited within the muscle. It is a biomarker of muscle quality. The study objective is to compare muscle area and intramuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) content of rectus femoris muscle, measured by standard CT imaging with point of care handheld musculoskeletal (MSK) ultrasound in patients presenting for primary total hip arthroplasty. This patient group is chosen because they will have hip CT performed as standard of care prior to surgery.', 'detailedDescription': 'In our institution, all primary total hip arthroplasty patients receive abdominal CT that encompasses their hip as part of the standard clinical evaluation for hip surgery. This provides an opportunity to perform an MSK ultrasound at the same time.\n\nBoth CT and MSK have established imaging techniques of soft tissue. Both techniques provide a 2D digital slice representation. Although the image is black and white, there are a large number of intervals, up to 255, between the two extremes of black and white, termed grayscale. The application of an algorithm based upon the grayscale is used to define the different characteristics of the muscle, e.g. striated muscle versus fat infiltration. The algorithms used to measure muscle characteristics are entirely dependent on the originating imaging source. This means that an estimate of adipose using the CT algorithm is entirely independent of the algorithm applied to the MSK estimation of adipose.\n\nThis study, therefore, aims to determine how well the two imaging techniques correlate with each other when IMAT is measured by the two separate techniques.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Primary hip replacement\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Revision hip replacement\n* Ipsilateral knee replacement'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT04126161', 'briefTitle': 'HIP: Hip Imaging Protocol', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Duke University'}, 'officialTitle': 'HIP: Hip Imaging Protocol: the Comparison of Muscle Ultrasound-derived Parameters With CT Imaging-derived Parameters in Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty Patients.', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'Pro00102976'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'ACTIVE_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'CT', 'description': 'Patients have standard of care CT prior to primary hip replacement', 'interventionNames': ['Procedure: CT']}, {'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Ultrasound', 'description': 'Patients have ultrasound scans together with standard of care CT prior to primary hip replacement', 'interventionNames': ['Device: Ultrasound']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'CT', 'type': 'PROCEDURE', 'description': 'standard of care CT prior to primary hip replacement', 'armGroupLabels': ['CT']}, {'name': 'Ultrasound', 'type': 'DEVICE', 'description': 'Ultrasound scan together with standard of care CT prior to primary hip replacement', 'armGroupLabels': ['Ultrasound']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '27710', 'city': 'Durham', 'state': 'North Carolina', 'country': 'United States', 'facility': 'Duke University Medical Center', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 35.99403, 'lon': -78.89862}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'David MacLeod', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'Duke University'}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'NO'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Duke University', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR'}}}}
