Abstract
US examination of the hip has mostly been dedicated to examination of the infant hip to detect developmental hip dysplasia. More recently, the development and refinement of “small-parts” transducers and the widespread consciousness of the capabilities of US in the assessment of musculoskeletal disorders have increased the number of US examinations of the hip in adults. This chapter deals with the normal anatomy, technique of examination and pathologic findings of the hip joint and hip region.
