Abstract
Imaging methods play an important role in the evaluation of unexplained hip pain. The role of diagnostic imaging in the evaluation of the hip pain has been expanded recently by advances in computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Historically, MRI arthrography has shown success in detecting labral pathology, loose bodies, and also ligamentum teres abnormalities. The addition of 3T MRI has increased our ability to visualize articular cartilage and other intra-articular and extra-articular abnormalities causing hip pain. This chapter is intended for the arthroscopist and includes a brief review of various imaging modalities used in the evaluation of adult hip pain with emphasis on the diagnosis of intra-articular hip pathology.
