Why Choose a Hip MRI Scan?
An MRI of the hip is a powerful imaging tool used to get detailed pictures of the bones, cartilage, tendons, and muscles in and around the hip joint. It is a non-invasive, radiation-free way to diagnose the cause of hip pain and other symptoms, which can be difficult to pinpoint with X-rays alone.
A hip MRI is often recommended if you have persistent or worsening hip pain, stiffness, or a "clicking" or "locking" sensation. It can help diagnose a variety of conditions, including:
- Tears of the labrum (the ring of cartilage around the hip socket) or ligaments.
- Osteoarthritis, showing early signs of cartilage wear and tear.
- Bursitis, which is inflammation of the fluid-filled sacs that cushion the joint.
- Bone fractures or stress fractures that may not be visible on X-rays.
- Muscle strains and other soft tissue injuries.
