What the Hip Scan Assesses

Our ultrasound scan provides a detailed assessment of key hip structures, including:

• Tendons & Ligaments – Detects tendonitis, ligament tears, or inflammation, which may cause pain or instability.
• Bursitis & Soft Tissue Inflammation – Identifies hip bursitis (trochanteric bursitis) or other soft tissue conditions contributing to discomfort.
• Arthritis & Joint Health – Evaluates for osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or synovitis, which can cause pain, stiffness, and swelling.
• Muscle & Nerve Conditions – Assesses for hip flexor strain, snapping hip syndrome, or nerve entrapment syndromes affecting mobility.
• Post-Injury & Post-Surgical Monitoring – Helps track healing after fractures, surgery, or hip replacements.

What to Expect During Your Scan

• Painless & Non-Invasive Procedure – No needles, radiation, or discomfort.
• Real-Time Imaging – A sonographer applies a small handheld probe with a water-based gel to capture detailed images of the hip.
• Dynamic Assessment – You may be asked to move your leg or hip during the scan to evaluate function and detect subtle abnormalities.
• Quick & Convenient – The scan takes 15–20 minutes, and same-day results are available for prompt diagnosis.

How to Prepare for Your Scan

• No special preparation required – Eat, drink, and take medications as usual.
• Wear loose, comfortable clothing for easy access to the hip area.
• Bring any previous medical reports related to your hip condition if available.
