Summary

The Study aims to investigate whether there is a clinically important difference in peri-articular bone mineral density (BMD) and trabecular bone score (TBS) between patients undergoing two different types of knee replacement fixation - uncemented Tritanium total knee replacement (TKR) and cemented Triathlon TKR.

Before undertaking a full randomised control trial however, it is necessary to establish that the proposed methodology and approach are feasible. Therefore an internal pilot study will be performed first. This registration is for the internal pilot study.
