  • Title: MR imaging of the hip: osseous lesions.
    Author: Beltran J, Opsha O.
    Journal: Magn Reson Imaging Clin N Am; 2005 Nov; 13(4):665-76, vi. PubMed ID: 16275575.
    Abstract:
    Because of the exquisite soft tissue contrast resolution of MR imaging combined with recent technologic developments, a variety of conditions involving the hip joint and adjacent bony structures can be well evaluated using MR imaging, with or without contrast material. Among the different conditions, hip trauma and avascular necrosis are the most frequent indications. Other entities for which MR imaging has proven its usefulness include subchondral fractures, osteochondritis dissecans, transient osteoporosis, bone tumors, inflammatory and infectious processes, and a variety of bone marrow disorders.
