This study sought to establish the prevalence of the cross over
sign (COS) and posterior wall sign (PWS) in relation to the anterior
pelvic plane (APP) in an asymptomatic population through reliable
and accurate 3D-CT based assessment. Data from pelvic CT scans of 100 asymptomatic subjects (200 hips)
undertaken for conditions unrelated to disorders of the hip were
available for analysis in this study. A previously established 3D
analysis method was applied to assess the prevalence of the COS
and PWS in relation to the APP.Aims
