Book cover The Young Adult Hip in Sport

Imaging is used in the assessment of hip pain in the young adult sportsman or woman to aid diagnosis, to assess the extent of damage, and to guide treatment and rehabilitation. Imaging is clearly only part of the assessment of hip pain and should always be used in conjunction with the clinical assessment of the patient.
