    Hip joint with no signs of osteoarthritis. The most commonly used radiographic classification system for osteoarthritis of the hip joint is the Kellgren–Lawrence system (or KL system). [6] It uses plain radiographs.

  4. Hip pain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hip_pain

    Pain in the groin, called anterior hip pain, is most often the result of osteoarthritis, osteonecrosis, occult fracture, acute synovitis, and septic arthritis; pain on the sides of the hip, called lateral hip pain, is usually caused by bursitis; pain in the buttock, called posterior or gluteal hip pain, which is the least common type of hip ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femoroacetabular_impingement

    MRI imaging may follow, particularly if there is no specific evidence on radiographs, producing a three-dimensional reconstruction of the joint for better definition, to evaluate the hip cartilage, or measure hip socket angles (e.g. the alpha-angle as described by Nötzli [22] in 2-D and by Siebenrock in 3-D [23]).

  6. Arthrogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthrogram

    MR arthrography is most often used in evaluation of the hip and acetabular labrum, of the shoulder rotator cuff and glenoid labrum, and less often in the wrist. [2] Arthrograms can be diagnostic and therapeutic. Therapeutic arthrograms often distend the joint with cortisone and lidocaine, with a common site being the shoulder.

    X-ray and MRI indicates evidence of subchondral collapse, crescent sign, or flattening of the FH Stage IV MRI and X -ray show narrowing of the joint space with secondary degenerative changes in the acetabulum, which is the socket portion of the hip that is a part of the pelvis, such as cysts, osteophytes, and cartilage destruction.

  8. Occult fracture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occult_fracture

    MRI signs of occult fractures are evident several weeks before radiographic signs appear. In the hip, a limited and cost-effective MR protocol, with only T1 weighted coronal images, may enable a reliable diagnosis or exclusion of occult fracture in very little time, for example, 7 minutes.

  9. Magnetic resonance imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_resonance_imaging

    Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique used in radiology to form pictures of the anatomy and the physiological processes inside the body. MRI scanners use strong magnetic fields, magnetic field gradients, and radio waves to generate images of the organs in the body.
