Introduction

In the evaluation of patients with pre-arthritic hip disorders, making the correct diagnosis and identifying the underlying bone pathology is of upmost importance to achieve optimal patient outcomes. 3-dimensional imaging adds information for proper preoperative planning. CT scans have become the gold standard for this, but with the associated risk of radiation exposure to this generally younger patient cohort.

Purpose

To determine if 3D-MR reconstructions of the hip can be used to accurately demonstrate femoral and acetabular morphology in the setting of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and development dysplasia of the hip (DDH) that is comparable to CT imaging.
