The purpose of this research is to gather clinical and radiographic (X-ray) information about EMPHASYS™ acetabular shell (also called a hip 'cup') placement in total hip replacement surgery using a non-invasive surgical navigation system called VELYS™ hip navigation system with CUPTIMIZE™ Advanced Hip-Spine Analysis software. Data collected in this study will be compared with data collected from implantations using different cup positioning instrumentation and techniques to assess performance.
