Abstract
Conventional radiography plays a key-role in the assessment of symptomatic hips. A well-performed radiographic examination (comparative A-P views with straight or ascending X-Ray beam, off-lateral view of Lequesne) enables to recognise most bone (fractures, transient osteoporosis, epiphyseal osteonecrosis) and articular lesions (osteoarthritis). In some situations (incoherent radio-clinical findings, need of a confident diagnosis), joint aspiration or additional imaging procedures are needed. Serial radiographs are obtained when no specific treatment can be immediately offered. Bone scintigraphy is obtained to confidently exclude bone or articular disorders or in case of suspected disseminated bone disease. The majority of bone, articular and abarticular lesions can be diagnosed by using MRI. It should be obtained when results are likely to influence the final outcome of the disease.
