Excerpt

Imaging evaluation of the hip joint requires expert knowledge about the detailed anatomy and specific injuries. This chapter will include various osseous pathologies that can affect the hip joint such as stress fractures, osteonecrosis, or subchondral insufficiency fractures. Several types of mechanical impingement between the osseous components of the hip joint will be discussed such as femoroacetabular impingement, abnormal antetorsion, and subspine impingement. Detailed evaluation of damage to the labrum, articular cartilage, and other intra-articular structures is described.
