Summary
Radiography is the primary method for evaluating prosthetic hips. Other imaging techniques like arthrography, CT, and MRI also help diagnose painful hip replacement complications.
Area of Science:
- Orthopedic imaging
- Prosthetic joint evaluation
Background:
- Hip radiography is standard for prosthetic evaluation.
- Painful prosthetic hips require further diagnostic imaging.
Purpose of the Study:
- To review imaging of normal hip arthroplasty.
- To describe appearances of prosthetic hip complications.
Main Methods:
- Review of radiographic, arthrographic, scintigraphic, sonographic, CT, and MRI findings.
- Analysis of normal and abnormal hip arthroplasty imaging.
Main Results:
- Radiography is the initial imaging modality.
- Arthrography, aspiration, scintigraphy, sonography, CT, and MRI have specific roles.
- Imaging findings correlate with normal and complicated prosthetic hips.
Conclusions:
- Multiple imaging modalities are essential for evaluating painful prosthetic hips.
- Understanding imaging appearances aids in diagnosing complications.

Ultrasonography
Ultrasonography is an imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize the body's internal structures. It is a non-invasive and safe procedure that does not involve the use of ionizing radiation, making it widely used in various medical fields. Ultrasonography is used to study heart function, blood flow in the neck or extremities, certain conditions such as gallbladder disease, and fetal growth and development.
