Shoulder replacement imaging study
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study uses a special low-dose X-ray machine (EOS®) to take 3D pictures of your shoulder after reverse total shoulder replacement. The goal is to better understand how the replacement parts move and fit together. It may help improve future surgeries.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a type of shoulder replacement called 'reverse total shoulder arthroplasty' about 2 years ago (21–27 months ago), performed by a specific surgeon in Lyon, France.
- You had a CT scan of that shoulder before the surgery.
- You are willing and able to have an EOS X-ray (a low-dose 3D imaging test).
- You do not have any metal or condition that would prevent a safe EOS scan.
- You have not broken your upper arm, shoulder blade, or collarbone before or after surgery.
- You have not had surgery on the other shoulder or upper arm (the one without the prosthesis).

This study is an observatory that collects information from people who have had shoulder surgery with an FH ORTHO medical device. It helps doctors learn how these devices work in real life and how patients recover.
This study uses a special full-body low-dose X-ray machine (EOS) to take images of your shoulder while you are standing, before you have shoulder replacement surgery. The goal is to see if the ball of the shoulder joint sits in a slightly different position when you are upright, which could help doctors plan your surgery better.
This study looks at how shoulder arthritis affects joint movement patterns. It compares patients with arthritis, healthy volunteers, and people who had a shoulder replacement that later needed a revision.
This study tests a new shoulder implant system for people who need their first shoulder replacement due to arthritis or a shoulder deformity. It helps researchers see how well the implant works and if it improves shoulder function and pain.
This trial tests a new shoulder replacement system that does not require a stem (a long piece that goes into the arm bone). It is for patients with severe shoulder arthritis or rotator cuff problems. The study will see how well the device works and how it compares to other treatments.
This study collects information from people having shoulder replacement surgery with an Arthrex implant. It helps doctors learn how well these implants work over time.
