CONCLUSION Age, BMI and N stage are the three main clinical prognostic factors determining EFS identified in this prospective series of patients with ACC. Such findings open new research perspectives on the influence of these components on initial patient care. BACKGROUND X-ray imaging is the gold standard for assessing lower limb conditions and preoperative planning. A novel low-radiation-dose EOS™ imaging system enables full-length weight-bearing imaging in one session and three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction. Thus, it can improve assessment of limb deformities, preoperative planning and follow-up with lower radiation exposure. The objective of this study was to measure lower limbs from EOS™ images to determine its accuracy and reproducibility in comparison with long-leg X-ray images. METHODS Over a one-year period, twenty patients (forty lower limbs) with knee osteoarthritis were recruited from clinic. Thirty-five (five excluded due to knee prosthesis) two-dimensional- (2D) EOS™, 3D EOS™ and X-ray images were measured independently by four observers, measuring lower limb angles and lengths. On average, twelve weeks later, observers repeated measurements on 2D EOS™ and X-ray images. RESULTS A t-test comparing 2D EOS™ with X-ray images showed no significant difference in all angle and length measurements (P > 0.05). When analysing observers separately, all measurements showed no significant difference, apart from the femoral anatomic-mechanical angle (fAMA) from observer 2 (2D EOS™ fAMA 6.21° vs. X-ray fAMA 7.10°, P = 0.02). Intra-observer intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) for 2D EOS™ and X-ray was 1.00 and 1.00, respectively, and inter-observer ICC was 1.00 and 0.99, respectively. A t-test comparing 2D- with 3D EOS™ images showed no significant difference in all measurements. A t-test comparing 3D EOS™ with X-ray images showed no
