A system / method based on fluoroscopy for correcting at least one tilt angle of an acetabular cup during total hip arthroplasty. A computer device processes an image of the surgical area to determine a distortion, at least according to the reference object in the image. Thereafter, the computing device generates a correction factor and measures an angle of inclination of an acetabular cup initially positioned in a posterior posterior image of a patient's pelvis, and corrects, as a function of the correction factor, the angle of inclination measured to provide a precise inclination angle of the acetabular cup. |
