Evaluation of Ultrasound for Detecting Hip Impingement

Brief Summary

Patients are being asked to participate in this study because a previous research MRI of their hips showed that the shape of the head of their thigh bone may indicate FAI of the hip. We have already collected cartilage imaging data and data on how the hip joint moves on people with painful/symptomatic FAI and people with normal hip function. We would now like to compare the motion of the hip joint to those with painful FAI using ultrasound.

  Ultrasound grade evaluated on a four point scale following ultrasound imaging session

  Upon enrollment

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• Ultrasound parameters

Study Arms (2)

Surgical group

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects already scheduled to undergo surgical correction of a symptomatic cam-type hip impingement deformity. Subjects will undergo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasound investigation prior to surgery.

Procedure: Magnetic resonance imaging; Procedure: Ultrasound

Control

OTHER

Asymptomatic subjects with normal hip morphometry, as determined by MRI. Subjects will undergo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasound imaging.

Procedure: Magnetic resonance imaging; Procedure: Ultrasound

Interventions

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 18 Years - 40 Years
• Sex: all
