This article focuses on long-term hip-pain rather than fractures (see X-ray of fractures).
Contents
Planning
Choice of investigation
Projectional radiography ("X-ray") of hip pain is the first imaging technique of choice, not only in older people with suspected osteoarthritis but also in young people without any such suspicion. In this case plain radiography allows categorization of normal anatomy versus hip dysplasia, or with impingement signs, pincer, cam, or a combination of both.[1]
Also consider the possibility of inguinal hernia.
It is performed as an X-ray of the hip joint.
Evaluation in adults
The main focus is on the joint, but also includes an overview of the projected pelvic bones and femur.
Potential findings by the hip joint
- X-ray of a normal hip joint.jpg
Normal hip
- X-ray of pincer impingement.jpg
X-ray in pincer impingement type of hip dysplasia, showing a pincer at the lateral part of the acetabulum
- X-ray of cam.jpg
X-ray of cam, with bulging at the lateral part of the femur neck
- X-ray of hip osteoarthritis.jpg
Hip in osteoarthritis with joint space narrowing and sclerosis.
See X-ray of osteoarthritis of the hip joint - X-ray of septic arthritis of the hip.jpg
Septic arthritis, similar to osteoarthritis but occurs faster and is generally more erosive.
- X-ray of synovial chondromatosis.jpg
X-ray of synovial chondromatosis, with a calcified cartilaginous chondroma inferiorly.[1]
