Introduction

Magnetic resonance arthrogram (MRA) is the investigation of choice in young adults with symptoms of femero acetabular impingement. The aim of the study is to assess the accuracy of MRA when correlated with surgical findings on hip arthroscopy.

Materials and Method

Between June 2007 and January 2014, 136 patients had MRA followed by subsequent arthroscopy at our institution. The radiology information system was used to gather MRA data. All scans were reported by a consultant radiologist with a specialist interest in musculoskeletal radiology. Patient records were reviewed to gather surgical data. Assessment was made of labral injury, Camshaft (CAM) or Pincer lesion and degeneration of the cartilage.
