Planning
Choice of modality
| Age | Scenario | Usual appropriate initial imaging |
|---|---|---|
| <4 weeks | Equivocal physical examination or risk factors | No imaging |
| Physical findings of DDH | Ultrasonography | |
| 4 weeks - 4 months | Equivocal physical examination or risk factors | Ultrasonography |
| 4 - 6 months | Concern for DDH | X-ray. Ultrasonography may be appropriate[notes 2] |
| >6 months | X-ray |
- Ultrasonography of hip dysplasia is generally the investigation of choice at up to 4 months due to limited ossification of the skeleton.[1][notes 2]
- X-ray of hip dysplasia is generally the initial imaging of choice thereafter.[1][notes 2]
